As much as we’ve enjoyed Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels’ performance during training camp and the preseason, his relationship with fellow rookie Sam Hartman has been fun to watch as well.
The two are commonly seen ‘shooting hoops’ – there’s no actual hoop, but there is a basketball – before and after practices, and of course there’s no shortage of trash talk between the two Commanders quarterbacks.
In fact, while they’re the two newest members of the group, the Washington quarterback room is as good as it is right now in part because of the rookies.
But waiving Hartman during Tuesday’s roster cuts put that chemistry in jeopardy. After clearing waivers, however, the undrafted quarterback from Notre Dame is back on the practice squad.
