Head coach and starting QB talk to the media after the game
The Washington Commanders were in Florida this week to practice with, and play against, the Miami Dolphins. The game ended in a 13-6 loss for Washington, but it was another good outing for rookie QB Jayden Daniels. He got two drives, with the second one ending in a field goal. Daniels caused some “excitement” on the sideline when he ran for 13 yards, and didn’t slide, or get out of bounds. Quinn said his young QB was on double secret probation. Daniels said God gave him a gift to run, and he’s still trying to find a balance in his game.

Jayden Daniels playing next week?:
I asked DQ postgame if Jayden would play next week.
“We’ll talk through all that stuff Monday when we get back. We’ve got a lot of players, 90 of them. So I’m not going to say one will play and 89 won’t or something like that. But it will be an awesome topic for Monday.” https://t.co/cTV2gbVZB9
