It's a tired take.
Jayden Daniels wasn't playing well even before going down with a hamstring injury against the Dallas Cowboys. Something just seems off with the quarterback right now, and he could be set for yet another spell on the sidelines during a crucial stretch of games for the Washington Commanders in the coming weeks.
Perhaps inevitably, this also brought up a tired narrative around Daniels following a similar trend to one ex-Washington quarterback who started quickly but faded into the proverbial wilderness due to injury and underperformance.
