After his performance in a Week 3 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels earned a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Daniels completed 21 of 23 (91.2%) passes for 254 yards and two touchdowns in Washington’s road win. The football from his final completion in that game is on display in Canton, Ohio, as he established a new NFL rookie record for single-game completion percentage.
Now, Daniels has another piece of his rookie season on display at the Hall of Fame.
The Commanders defeated the Chicago Bears on a 52-yard Hail Mary to end their Week 8 game when Daniels found wide receiver Noah Brown in the end zone as time expired. It’s the top play of the 2024 NFL season.
On Thursday, the Hall of Fame posted a message revealing that Brown’s gloves and the pylon from the Hail Mary play at Northwest Stadium are now on display in Canton. Daniels and Brown autographed each item.
