Dan Quinn on Jayden Daniels: Putting in the work, that’s where the success comes

Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels has an impressive array of physical talents, but coach Dan Quinn says what really sets Daniels apart is his work ethic.

Quinn says Daniels, his teammates and his coaches gain confidence on every play knowing the quarterback prepared to the best of his ability.

Quinn said in a video Posted by leaders. “It’s the work, success came for it. He puts it in. It’s a good feeling when you take the field knowing you’re fully prepared. You’ve put in the work.”

Quinn praised Daniels for his mental approach to the game, saying that when other young quarterbacks fold it under pressure, Daniels embraces it.

“Lots of balances. When mental chaos is going on around him, he lives in that space and is very comfortable in that zone, which is completely uncomfortable.”

If Quinn can show enough of that poise on Sunday against the Eagles, he could become the first rookie quarterback to start in a Super Bowl.
