Commanders Want Jayden Daniels to ‘Remain A Passer’ After Running 16 Times In His NFL Debut
Daniels has spent his life as a quarterback, developing a feel for when to take off and run.
Daniels ran the ball 16 times in his NFL debut, rushing for 88 yards and two touchdowns in the Washington Commanders’ season-opening loss at Tampa Bay.
As seen today, running can get you hurt.
The coaching staff would like to see their rookie quarterback tone that down.
“We’d love to see him remain a passer first, and I think it’s going to come with more experience,” coach Dan Quinn said.
“(Sixteen) carries is not the model that we’re looking for. … I do think we’ll continue to grow in that spot, but (it is) certainly not by design to have that many.”
Jayden Daniels, the No. 2 pick out of LSU after winning the Heisman Trophy last season as the best player in college football, is one of the top prospects in the league.
