Jayden Daniels Throws Five Scores In Thrilling Victory
2 mins agoWashington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels went 24-for-39 with 258 yards and five scores during their victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Daniels added 81 yards on the ground on nine attempts. He also threw two interceptions. In the first half, Daniels and the Commanders had trouble finding much consistency but were able to score 14 points. Daniels found Jamison Crowder on a six-yard TD strike and Terry McLaurin on a 32-yard pass. However, Daniels put the team on his back in the fourth quarter as he led the Commanders to a victory by putting 22 points on the board. In this quarter, Daniels found Olamide Zaccheaus twice, once from four yards out, and the other from 49 yards out. Then, the LSU product would go one to throw his fifth TD pass of the afternoon in the final seconds to clinch the victory. He found Crowder for the second time from nine yards out. This was his first five-touchdown performance of his career and he was able to do it against one of the league's top defensive units. Daniels remains a must-start QB1 heading into a Week 17 tilt against the Atlanta Falcons.
