The Washington Commanders began organized team activities with head coach Dan Quinn supporting quarterback Jayden Daniels ahead of a critical Year 3. The offense is changing, including a new play-caller, David Blough, and a scheme that aligns more with pro-style concepts. Quinn and Kingsbury no longer share the same offensive vision, and Daniels is central to the adjustments. Quinn expects Daniels to spend more time under center and operate with more huddles, while maintaining communication, mental quickness, and intent. Quinn believes Daniels is transitioning flawlessly and making difficult plays look easy. Daniels has more doubters to silence after limited action last season and has been working to improve during the offseason.
"“Learning a new system so quickly and fast. Saw that a few years ago, and I am feeling those same instincts now. More huddle. It'll look differently. You'll see him under center more, but you see the same intent, you see the same communication, the mental quickness. He makes things that are difficult look easy, and I know they're not.”"
"Things will be different for Daniels next season. There is a new play-caller in David Blough. They've worked together over the last two seasons, but it's still a relationship in its early stages. There is also a scheme more in keeping with pro-style concepts for the former LSU standout to pick up."
"The Commanders felt like change was needed. Quinn and Kliff Kingsbury no longer shared the same vision for the offense. Daniels is at the forefront of these alterations, and even though he had a strong connection to his first NFL play-caller, it's clear that something had to be done in pursuit of maximizing the signal-caller's rookie contract window."
"Quinn is already seeing a shift in Daniels. Picking up a new system and going about things differently is getting the dynamic dual-threat out of his comfort zone. The coach is seeing a flawless transition, which speaks volumes to his adaptability and inner drive."
