Jayden Daniels Sets Rookie Record, Commanders Win

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels had a standout performance in a 38-33 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, completing 21 of 23 passes with two touchdowns and adding a rushing touchdown. His 91.3% completion rate set both an NFL rookie and Washington team record, and he led all NFL rookies in rushing yards with 171. Daniels' play has the Commanders at a 2-1 record and top of the NFC East, fueling excitement about the team's future. The win also marked the first time in the Super Bowl era that an NFL game ended without either team punting or committing a turnover. The Commanders have scored on every drive in the past two games, excluding kneel downs, a feat achieved by only a few elite quarterbacks in their entire careers. The impressive showing has increased Washington's attractiveness for prime-time TV slots.
