Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels must protect his body for the better interest of both himself and the team.
Plenty of what the Washington Commanders' future looks like depends on how potential franchise quarterback Jayden Daniels pans out.
The Commanders selected Daniels as the No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, just behind USC superstar Caleb Williams. The Heisman-winning LSU product hoists plenty of potential for Washington, though he's going to have to take care of his body if he wants to realize that potential.To protect Daniels, the Commanders need to ensure they're doing anything and everything possible to provide a stout offensive line, though some of the precautions comes from his decision-making.
Will Daniels slide, though? He was quite reckless at times in college. However, that could very, very easily change as he transitions to the NFL level. The style of play is different, as is the level of competition.The 6-foot-4, 210-pound quarterback brings dual-threat potential, but doing so in a smart way could elevate the offense while protecting his body. Commanders offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury will make sure it happens, too.
The data and analytics certainly don't favor Daniels deciding to slide when evading the pocket and getting out on the run, but those numbers aren't coming from an NFL sample size. With time, the former LSU quarterback will prove that he's smart enough to just let plays die rather than sacrificing his body.Kade has been covering a wide variety of teams ranging from the NFL to the NBA and college athletics since joining Sports Illustrated's FanNation in 2022.
