Jayden Daniels shared favorite moment of rookie season with Taylor Rooks

Jayden Daniels had an epic rookie season with the Washington Commanders in 2024. The quarterback led his team to the NFC championship game where they were defeated by the Philadelphia Eagles.

Daniels was one of three quarterbacks at the "QB Playbook" discussion panel at Fanatics Fest over the weekend. Host Taylor Rooks asked him to name his favorite play from his rookie season. While some likely expected him to mention his Hail Mary touchdown against the Bears, it was the game-winning touchdown over the Eagles in Week 16.

“Beating Philly at home," Daniels said on Saturday. "It was just because of how the game went. It was a great team that we were facing with a great defense. I had thrown a pick the drive before so I had another chance to go out there and make it up. Obviously that last play to be able to hit that pass to Jamison Crowder. So that’s probably my favorite play of the season last year.”

In 17 games, Daniels threw for 3,568 yards and 25 touchdowns. He also rushed for 891 yards and six more touchdowns.
