The 'NFL rookie passing-yard leaders' quiz

Happy 25th birthday to 2024 AP Offensive Rookie of the Year and Washington Commanders star quarterback, Jayden Daniels!

The Commanders drafted Daniels with the second-overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and handed him the keys to the organization right away. The LSU-product and 2023-24 Heisman Trophy winner rewarded the Commanders with a 12-5 record and surprise run to the NFC Championship game as a rookie. He was a threat with both his arm (3,586 yards and 25 touchdowns) as well as his legs, leading Washington with 891 rushing yards as well. 

2025 hasn’t been as smooth for Daniels and company.  Injuries have made it tough for him to stay on the field, limiting him to just seven starts this year before getting shut down for the season ahead of Week 16. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. While Daniels’ second season didn’t live up to the hype of his first, he still threw for the 14th-most yards in a season by a rookie while setting a Washington record. With that being said, can you name every rookie quarterback to throw for at least 3,000 yards?

Good luck!
