Daily Slop - 29 Jul 25 - Commanders veteran offensive lineman unexpectedly retired today

This rank is not all Daniels... but it is very heavily Daniels. The 24-year-old quarterback replaced Stroud as the most valuable young player in the NFL after his dominant rookie season. He ranked fourth in the NFL in QBR (70.6), tied for 10th in touchdowns (25) and threw for 3,568 yards.

On offense, Daniels is joined by 24-year-old Coleman, who will move from left tackle to left guard this season, plus 21-year-old rookie tackle Josh Conerly Jr. The Commanders have some young skill players, too, with wide receiver Luke McCaffrey (24) and tight end Ben Sinnott (23).

The Washington defense features fewer young talent than the offense, but the highlights are cornerback Mike Sainristil, who is 24, and defensive tackle Jer’Zhan Newton, the 23-year-old who will replace veteran Jonathan Allen.
