Quarterback Jayden Daniels was clutch when he needed to be during the Washington Commanders’ 21-6 win over the New York Giants, completing 19 of his 30 pass attempts for 233 yards and a touchdown. Here are some of his best throws from the afternoon.<\/p>\n
1. Daniels airs out 34-yard pass to Chris Moore.<\/p>\n
The Commanders needed a spark after their opening drive ended in six plays, and they found one from perhaps one of the most unlikely players.<\/p>\n
Moore, who was elevated from the practice squad last Saturday, was lined up wide and to the right with the Commanders facing a second-and-4. Daniels’ first option wasn’t open as he rolled to the right, leaving the quarterback looking for other targets. He spotted Moore sprinting for the sideline and slung it in the veteran’s direction, hoping Moore could snag it before stepping out of bounds.<\/p>\n
It was a close call, but Moore managed to drag both feet and maintain possession before stepping out on the Commanders’ sideline. The 34-yard completion was Daniels’ longest of the day and helped give the offense some steam to get itself in position for another impressive throw from Daniels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Quarterback Jayden Daniels was clutch when he needed to be during the Washington Commanders’ 21-6 win over the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":352381,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2069],"tags":[427,7,1806,6,1805,855,111,2480],"class_list":{"0":"post-352380","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-washington-commanders","8":"tag-commanders","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-football-news","11":"tag-nfl","12":"tag-subsection-news","13":"tag-washington","14":"tag-washington-commanders","15":"tag-washingtoncommanders"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115170458853266593","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/352380","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=352380"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/352380\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/352381"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=352380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=352380"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=352380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
