Overview
- General manager Adam Peters said on NFL Network that Daniels had an 'incredible' offseason, trained in Los Angeles with a throwing coach, and returned for Phase 1 looking healthy.
- Head coach Dan Quinn said Daniels carries 'extra hunger' after a frustrating year and will be pushed by practice standards like ball location and accuracy.
- Last season Daniels missed 10 games with knee, hamstring, and elbow injuries, and Washington finished 5-12.
- With Deebo Samuel, Chris Moore, and Zach Ertz gone, Washington added Dyami Brown, Van Jefferson, and rookie Antonio Williams, heightening the need for first-team reps.
- Washington drafted QB Athan Kaliakmanis for insurance, yet coverage and team voices stress the Commanders are not the same without Daniels.
