How Old Is Jayden Daniels and Would He Be the Youngest Super Bowl Quarterback in NFL History?
Should the Washington Commanders defeat the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship Game, Jayden Daniels would be the first rookie quarterback to start in a Super Bowl. Dan Marino and Ben Roethlisberger were both younger than Daniels is now when they made it to the Big Game,
Has a rookie QB ever started in a Super Bowl? Jayden Daniels on brink of history
Washington was dominated by Philadelphia in the NFC championship, but it's hard not to believe this group won't be back on that stage soon.
Jayden Daniels, Terry McLaurin, and Dan Quinn are on the verge of historic milestones as the Commanders take on the Eagles for a shot at the Super Bowl.

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn has detailed one characteristic of Jayden Daniels that is contagious to the rest of the roster.
Daniels threw two touchdown passes to lead the Commanders to a win at Tampa Bay, becoming the fourth rookie quarterback in the SB era to win a road playoff start.
The former LSU standout, who has been turning heads all season, delivered a stellar performance. Daniels finished the game with a 122.9 passer rating. His play was highlighted by completing 22 of 31 passes for 299 passing yards, two touchdowns and zero picks.

C.J. Stroud’s stellar rookie season set a high bar for first-year quarterbacks to clear, but the Texans signal-caller told the Houston Chronicle earlier this week that Daniels has had “the best rookie season of all time”. “Records are meant to be broken,” he added.
Wilson is responsible for perhaps the most surprisingly good season for a rookie QB. A third-round pick, he wasn't even expected to be the starter heading into the season with the Seahawks having just signed Matt Flynn to a lucrative deal. But Wilson blew everyone away in training camp and won the job prior to Week 1.
