Jayden Daniels, the Washington Commanders quarterback, won the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year award at the 2025 NFL Honors, following a remarkable rookie season where he led the team to a 12-5 record and their first NFC Championship appearance in 33 years. Daniels finished the season with impressive stats, including 3,568 passing yards and 891 rushing yards, showcasing his ability to perform under pressure with multiple game-winning drives.
