One of the most jarring parts of the Washington Commanders’ loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday was Jayden Daniels’s stat line of three rushes for five yards. The rookie quarterback’s legs hadn’t been neutralized like that in years.

No secrets were hidden when the Philadelphia Eagles were discussing Jayden Daniels. Every player that was asked about the Washington Commanders standout rookie came away impressed. The one Eagles player that played with Daniels over the summer envisioned his success.

The Eagles are coming off a laugher in Dallas while the Commanders were in a slugfest with the Steelers right down to the bitter end. That means Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown and company sat out the fourth quarter. That gives the Eagles the ultimate tiebreaker in a short week: Rest.
