Jayden Daniels may have wrapped up the NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award with a five-touchdown performance on Sunday. Far more importantly, the LSU product shored up the Washington Commanders' playoff prospects by authoring a come-from-behind victory over division rival Philadelphia — a massive statement in front of a massive audience that will count as his career high-water mark to this point.
A casual football fan witnessing this performance would conclude that Daniels is poised and has a real on-field maturity greater than his years. Dan Orlovsky, certified football expert on ESPN, confirmed that suspicion on Monday morning while shouting out Daniels for being the best player in the league all weekend.
