Prior to the start of his rookie season, Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels told CBS Sports that he aspired to become the greatest running quarterback in NFL history. While he hasn't done that (yet), Daniels has been named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Jayden Daniels led the Commanders to their first NFC title game in 33 years, making him the easy pick for NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Daniels, who played a key role in reinvigorating the franchise, is the first Washington player to earn the honor since Robert Griffin III after the 2012 season.
