Most of the discourse around rookie quarterbacks last offseason was centered around the first overall pick, Caleb Williams. However, Williams, who was drafted by the Chicago Bears, struggled mightily in his first season of professional action.<\/p>\n
Instead, the standout quarterback of the 2024 class was Jayden Daniels, who landed with the Washington Commanders, although it\u2019s worth noting that Minnesota Vikings rookie quarterback J.J.McCarthy lost all of his rookie season to a meniscus injury he suffered in preseason.<\/p>\n
Daniels was impressive throughout the regular season, but really shone in the playoffs. The rookie led Washington all the way to the NFC Championship before losing to the eventual Super Bowl Champions.<\/p>\n
Daniels is hoping to take things a step further this season and reach the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, the road in front of him is going to be an arduous one, at least for the time being, with some brutal injury news being confirmed for the pieces around him.<\/p>\n
\u201cCommanders now have ruled out WR Terry McLaurin, WR Noah Brown and G Sam Cosmi for Sunday\u2019s game vs. the Chargers. None of those players are traveling with the team to Los Angeles today,\u201d reported ESPN\u2019s Adam Schefter.<\/p>\n
