Joe Burrow of the Cincinnati Bengals was considered the established star among the LSU Heisman Trophy-winning quarterbacks facing off on Monday night. Jayden Daniels was the Washington Commanders rookie who had an exciting future, but he wasn't Burrow yet.
It seems there are two star quarterbacks from LSU in the NFL now. On Monday night, Daniels was better. He's the one we'll be talking about all week. A new NFL phenomenon might have arrived in front of a national television audience.
Daniels, the second overall pick of this year's NFL Draft, put on a show in Washington's 38-33 win over the Bengals.
