Jayden Daniels

Commanders offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury said QB Jayden Daniels is “a little thicker” than he was in 2024.

Kingsbury added that Daniels’ arm strength has improved since his tremendous rookie season, during which he threw for 25 touchdowns and nine interceptions while completing 69 percent of his attempts. Kingsbury said there was no mandate from the team that Daniels — who played as a rookie at 6'4" and 208 pounds — put on weight during the offseason. Lamar Jackson took a similar path early in his NFL career before dropping the weight and returning to his original playing weight. Daniels should once again be an elite fantasy option as one of the most efficient mobile quarterbacks in the NFL.
