Former LSU quarterback and projected top 2024 draft pick Jayden Daniels named Lamar Jackson and C.J. Stroud as inspirations during Tuesday’s episode of Cold as Balls with Kevin Hart.
Jackson, the No. 32 pick of the 2018 NFL Draft, is heading into his seventh season with the Baltimore Ravens after his second career All-Pro campaign in 2023. Meanwhile Stroud, selected No. 2 during the 2023 draft, is returning for his second campaign with the Houston Texans after he was named Offensive Rookie of the Year last season. Like Stroud, Daniels could go as high as No. 2 in the upcoming draft. With the Chicago Bears expected to draft USC quarterback Caleb Williams, he may be selected by the Washington Commanders with the following pick. After moving on from Sam Howell, the Commanders are looking for their next franchise quarterback.
