Jayden Daniels addresses Commanders teammates on OT gaffe - ESPN

ASHBURN, Va. — Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels addressed his teammates, once more blaming himself for the end-of-overtime debacle against the Giants on Sunday before making a vow.

«I let guys know it'll never happen again,» Daniels said he told players during an offensive team meeting Monday, «and we're going to move forward.»

Daniels and the Commanders (1-3-1) have spent all week being the focus of talk about the inexplicable ending to their 27-27 tie against the New York Giants.

With Washington in field goal range at the New York 24-yard line, Daniels took the snap with 12 seconds left and no timeouts. Rather than throw the ball, he started to scramble and was sacked. The team failed to get off another play.

Daniels and the coaches have been roundly criticized by former players (Richard Sherman), former coaches (Mike Tomlin, Rex Ryan) and current players (Micah Parsons), among many others.

«I'm moving on to San Francisco,» Daniels said. «I can't say it's not warranted because of what happened. Everybody has opinions to speak, and rightfully so. So can't stop nobody from saying their opinion or anything like that. It's just about my process and moving forward and learning from it.»

Daniels said backup quarterback Marcus Mariota told him, «Every great one has been through adversity in their career.»

«I'm not going to say I'm one of the greats,» Daniels said. «But… you can't dwell on it and let it affect you. As a competitor, as a person, you feel like you let everybody around you down.»

While Daniels accepted blame for the play after the game, he was even stronger in placing fault on himself Thursday. Offensive coordinator David Blough called the play after the previous one ended with 50 seconds left on
