The Washington Commanders selected the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner in the first round of the draft Thursday in Detroit.
He may not have been able to hear them all the way in Detroit, but that didn’t stop some of‘ biggest fans from roaring with approval when the Washington Commanders announced him as their first-round NFL draft pick Thursday, April 25.The high-energy crowd of about 100 erupted in cheers every time Daniels appeared on the large screen set up in the Cajon High gymnasium for a draft watch party hosted by the school and San Bernardino City Unified School District.
An NFL live feed followed Daniels, wearing a pale blue suit, black sunglasses and a broad smile, as he made his way from the waiting room to the stage in Detroit.“Just believe in me,” Daniels said. “It’s gonna be a grind. I’m a hard worker. I can’t wait.” Hailed a “hometown hero” by many at the gathering in San Bernardino, Daniels in his last year with LSU impressed with 3,812 yards passing and 1,134 yards rushing and 50 total touchdowns in 12 games, earning him college football’s most prestigious player of the year award.
“The Commanders just got a lot of fans. We couldn’t be happier,” Richard “Rich” Imbriani, Cajon’s athletic director, said moments after the draft Thursday. “The kids have been waiting for this,” Imbriani added. “Jayden comes back and talks to the kids and visits. He is tremendous.”“There’s not many Heisman Trophies in the country, so to have one homegrown in San Bernardino, it’s something that shows our kids anything is possible, it doesn’t matter where you come from,” Jackson said.
