WATCH: Commanders QB Jayden Daniels arrives at first game in Doug Williams jersey

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels arrived at his first NFL game in style. The Commanders play the New York Jets at MetLife in the 2024 preseason opener, and Daniels arrived wearing Doug Williams’ iconic No. 17 jersey.

Williams, of course, played for Washington from 1986-89 and led the franchise to a 42-10 win over the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XXII. He completed 18 of 29 passes for 340 yards and four touchdowns and was named Super Bowl MVP.

Williams returned to the organization in 2014 where he has served in numerous roles. New general manager Adam Peters named Williams his senior advisor this offseason.

The legendary Williams has served as a mentor to Daniels since their arrival in April’s NFL draft.

Daniels led the Commanders to a touchdown on his first drive as an NFL quarterback.
