The quarterback class from the 2024 NFL Draft was already one of the stories of this season. And it keeps getting better.
Jayden Daniels got the win on Sunday night, sending the Washington Commanders to the playoffs. And that usually would be enough that he wouldn’t have to share the spotlight. But the other rookie quarterback in the game, Michael Penix Jr. of the Atlanta Falcons, was also fantastic in rallying his team to overtime with a great game-tying drive in regulation.
Daniels’ season will definitely be continuing into the postseason. The Commanders clinched a playoff berth with the overtime 30-24 win.
