Washington Commanders rookie quarterback and reigning Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels only needed one drive to shine in his preseason debut at the New York Jets on Saturday.
Daniels connected on a 42-yard dime to wide receiver Dyami Brown before capping his day with a three-yard touchdown run.
Daniels completed 2-of-3 passes for 45 yards. He missed running back Austin Ekeler on a screen pass but later connected with Terry McLaurin on a three-yard catch.
Needless to say, fans and analysts were pleased with the performance against the Jets, who were playing without four-time NFL MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers alongside 27 other key players, including the starting defense.
