While Daniels is good to go, the Commanders will likely be without some players for tonight's divisional showdown. According to the team's official injury report, linebacker Nick Bellore, recent cornerback acquisition Marshon Lattimore and kicker Austin Seibert did not practice all week. That means they are set to miss tonight's game.
How has Jayden Daniels performed in his rookie season?
The Washington Commanders selected Daniels with the second overall pick of the 2024 NFL draft. They chose Daniels' rich blend of athleticism and accuracy rather than Drake Maye's poise in the pocket.
So far this season, Daniels has vindicated the front office's decision. Daniels is currently playing Pro Bowl-caliber football for the Commanders, and he's one of the main catalysts for their 7-3 record entering Week 11.
Daniels has amassed 2,147 passing yards, nine touchdowns and two interceptions in 10 games. He has also added 464 rushing yards and four touchdowns for good measure, earning himself comparisons to reigning league MVP Lamar Jackson.
Furthermore, Daniels is the epitome of the saying, "The best ability is availability," with the star rookie not missing a single game so far this season. That's despite dealing with numerous knocks to start his professional football career. Expect Daniels to put up another impressive performance tonight when the Commanders face off against the Eagles on Thursday Night Football.
