Debate if you must, but there’s a strong argument that the No. 2 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft is already the NFC’s top quarterback amid a rookie season that is the best of the Super Bowl era.
That statement might not sync with Jayden Daniels’ uneven one-touchdown pass performance in the 26-18 loss at Philadelphia in Week 11. He was likely still battling a rib injury, and his single touchdown toss came with 28 seconds remaining.
In the Week 16 rematch, Daniels threw three of his career-best five touchdowns in the fourth quarter, including the game winner with six seconds remaining for a 36-33 comeback victory.
