Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels equaled a record held by former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger in his rookie 2004 season. That year, Roethlisberger helped lead the Steelers to a 15-1 record after stepping in for Tommy Maddox.
Throughout that season, Roethlisberger led the Steelers to the AFC Championship and 14 wins overall. Daniels has now matched that after leading the Commanders to a 45-31 win over the Detroit Lions on Saturday.
Daniels was spectacular on Saturday. He completed 23 of 31 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns while adding 51 more yards on the ground.
The Commanders drafted Daniels with the second overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft, directly after the Chicago Bears picked Caleb Williams first overall.
The former LSU star stuck in a big time way, and his breakout campaign in Baton Rouge a season ago shot him up draft boards quickly.
Now, he turned around the Commanders, who were a 4-13 team a year ago, into a group that is now heading into the NFC Championship.
