One ESPN writer predicts Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels will win Offensive Rookie of the Year honors.
The Washington Commanders have a proud history as an NFL franchise yet somehow only have two NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Award winners in their record books.
New Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels is looking to make it three, and he'd be the second in his position to win the award after Robert Griffin III who was selected No. 2 overall in the 2012 NFL Draft and subsequently brought home the honor.In a recent collection of award predictions for the rookie class of 2024 one ESPN writer chose Daniels to bring the award back to Washington for the first time in over 10 years.
"This will be a close race with Williams and possibly a receiver such as Harrison, but Daniels is set up for success," Jeremy Fowler writes. "Washington has a chance to be sneaky good. Daniels has adequate skill players around him in Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Zach Ertz, Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler. Some evaluators considered Daniels the most pro-ready quarterback on Day 1.
While Fowler was the only one to vote for Daniels in the pre-training camp survey Williams didn't run away with the predictions as some might have expected. Instead, he only beat out Harrison by one vote.Meanwhile, the selection of another quarterback - Washington's Michael Penix Jr. who was selected by the Atlanta Falcons - took home the distinction of being the most 'head-scratching' pick of this year's NFL Draft.
