NFL Makes Announcement on QB Jayden Daniels

Jayden Daniels has made his transition to the NFL look easy, as his on-field success continued in Week 5.

The Washington Commanders knocked off the Cleveland Browns, 34-13, on Sunday led by 320 total yards from Daniels, including 82 yards on the ground and a passing touchdown, his fourth of the year.

The win elevated Washington to the top of the NFC East standings at 4-1 on the year. Through five games, the franchise is tied with the Houston Texans for the second-best record in the NFL.

For his efforts on Sunday, Daniels, who leads the NFL in completion percentage at 77.1%, was awarded the league's Pepsi Zero Rookie of the Week honors.

It marks the fourth time in five weeks that the 23-year-old rising star has taken home the goods.

Daniels beat out five other rookies in the Week 5 voting: Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr., Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers and New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr.

Next up for Daniels and the Commanders is a road game against Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET.
