Throughout the spring, coaches, teammates and the media in attendance praised Daniels’ accuracy. Early in camp, that accuracy is on full display.

Head coach Dan Quinn spoke to the media on Wednesday morning and said the focus of the first training camp practice would be the red zone.
From all indications, Daniels is off to a fast start.
Another TD from Daniels to Kaz Allen. Daniels is having an exceptional start to camp. Just finished this team drill 4/4 with one handoff. Other than one PBU, he’s been pretty flawless #RaiseHail

There is a lot of excitement surrounding the Commanders this summer, and much of that centers around the rookie quarterback from LSU.
