It's only a preseason game, but for Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, it's the first chance to show what he can do against another team. That's why he's already eyeing Saturday's matchup against the New York Jets.

"I'm very excited," Daniels said Sunday. "I love playing, love to compete. Going out there will be a different challenge."

Washington coach Dan Quinn said Sunday that Daniels, the No. 2 pick in this year's draft, will play in the team's preseason opener vs. the Jets, but he has not yet said who will start or how long Daniels will play. Daniels has been the first quarterback during the full-team sessions for the past several practices. But veteran Marcus Mariota has taken reps with starters in other drills during that time.
