One NFL executive believes that Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels will make an MVP run in 2025.

"He's scary," an NFC executive told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "He's never rattled and elevates everyone around him. I hate to use the word 'generational,' but it really looks like he's that."

A 2025 MVP season wouldn't be a surprise whatsoever, especially given Daniels' transformative impact on the Commanders as a rookie.

The No. 2 overall draft pick has led the Commanders to a 12-5 season and an NFC Championship Game appearance. It's a remarkable accomplishment for many reasons, but the biggest may be that Washington was 3-13-1 the year before his arrival.
