‘Hear my name everywhere’ – Jayden Daniels told the NFL he was the next great QB as 13-year-old kid
Jayden Daniels is one win away from the Super Bowl. Eleven years ago, he was already tweeting like a pro and announcing his young talent to the world. Jayden Daniels was ready for the spotlight at an early age Tom Brady and the New England Patriots were on top of the NFL in 2014. The Seattle Seahawks still had the Legion of Boom, while the Dallas Cowboys were the kings of the NFC East. Daniels was a 13-year-old kid filling his tweets with emojis, including 100 percent signs and a football. But the future Heisman Trophy winner knew he was filled with something special. “One day you guys gonna here my name everywhere,” Daniels tweeted on July 24, 2014. In January 2025, he’s on the verge of winning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, while the revitalized Washington Commanders are days away from playing in the NFC Championship against the division rival Philadelphia Eagles. Fans keep finding Daniels’ prophetic tweet from 11 years ago and acknowledging his young greatness. “Yessir goat,” a fan tweeted. “Jayden Freaking Daniels,” a second fan posted. “You are the hope and the light!” a third fan said. x@JayD__5Daniels knew he was special before he was in high school[/caption] GettyHe flashed at the NFL Draft[/caption] GettyDaniels won the Heisman at LSU[/caption] GettyHe’s become the new face of Washington[/caption] “This tweet is incredible,” fourth fan wrote. “But the idiot in me is so mad that he said ‘here’ and not ‘hear.’ “ The 24-year-old Daniels has been a revelation for the Commanders and continually made history.
