Jayden Daniels Praises New Commanders Teammate Stefon Diggs: 'He's a Dog'
Jayden Daniels raves about new Commanders WR Stefon Diggs after a strong joint practice against Miami.
In 2025, Jayden Daniels endured a disappointing season, attaining only seven appearances due to injury. He completed passes at a 60.6% rate, amassing 1,262 yards, eight touchdowns, and three interceptions, in addition to 278 rushing yards and two touchdowns. The Washington Commanders' performance suffered as a result, culminating in a 5-12 record.
In 2024, Daniels, a rookie, led the team to a 12-5 season and the NFC Championship Game. To bolster the team's offensive capabilities, the Commanders enlisted the help of Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs, a Maryland native. During a recent joint practice with Miami, Daniels displayed promising chemistry with Diggs, throwing a touchdown pass during 11-on-11 drills and executing several other high-quality plays.
Daniels praised Diggs, calling him a "dog" for his playmaking ability, energy, and leadership. Despite Diggs' diminished form with the Patriots last season, he remains a reliable option with reliable hands. Daniels' rapport with Diggs is a positive sign for the Commanders as they enter a crucial season, where their performance will largely depend on their quarterback.
