Jayden Daniels ran out of time for another comeback. Daniels finished with 255 yards passing with a touchdown and an interception and was sacked three times. His bid to become the first rookie QB to reach a Super Bowl was officially over. Washington failed to become just the third No.

Daniels wanted to see the defeat through, even if that only meant handing off the ball on the final meaningless drive. Coach Dan Quinn had seen enough and gave Daniels a breather. His bid to become the first rookie QB to reach a Super Bowl was officially over. “Taking this loss pretty hard,” Daniels said. “But having those guys around and be able to just uplift other individuals in the locker room, I appreciate them a lot.”
“I wish I was 22 playing with him,” Ertz said. “Had my whole career in front of me with him. That’s tough.” The Commanders seemed unbothered by the moment on the opening drive of the title game in front of an Eagles crowd that had been wired since parking lot gates opened for pregame tailgating. The Commanders began with an 18-play drive and a field goal that quieted a raucous crowd and showed that — a week after knocking off No. 1 seed Detroit — they were primed for a third straight road playoff victory.

Daniels, a rookie quarterback, has the opportunity to become the first to lead his team to the Super Bowl in his debut season. This Sunday's NFC Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles holds immense significance, as a win would mark the Commanders' first appearance in the NFC Championship game since 1991. Daniels's journey echoes that of Doug Williams, another Commanders quarterback who made history as the first Black quarterback to win a Super Bowl in 1988.
