Following the game, Bengals star wideout Ja’Marr Chase couldn’t help but commend Daniels on his impressive display. In a candid statement, Chase remarked, “He’s a great effing player. Not gonna lie. That was my first time sitting down and watching him besides the spring game, so he’s a very outstanding player.” The praise from Chase, who shares a collegiate alma mater with Daniels in LSU, speaks volumes about the young quarterback’s talent and potential.
While Chase had a standout performance of his own with six catches for 118 yards and two touchdowns, it was Daniels who stole the spotlight with his electrifying playmaking abilities.
