LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels puts on a hat after being chosen by the Washington Commanders with the second overall pick during the first round of the NFL football draft, Thursday, April 25, 2024, in Detroit. Daniels began his career at Arizona State University, where he played for three seasons before transferring to LSU. Over the course of his college career, he threw for 12,749 yards, 89 touchdowns, and 20 interceptions.
Daniels is the highest quarterback Washington has drafted since Robert Griffin III was the No. 2 pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Daniels and Griffin were both Heisman Trophy winners.Washington has seen changes at the organizational level over the past eight months. The Commanders hired a new owner, Josh Harris, a new general manager, Adam Peters, and a new coach, Dan Quinn.
The Commanders have seen high turnover in the quarterback position. The 2016 and 2017 seasons under Kirk Cousins were the last time the team saw the same consecutive quarterback open for the team. Last year’s starting quarterback, Sam Howell, was traded to the Seattle Seahawks in the offseason.
