There's only inflation on the horizon here... The smart play here is to extend him when he's first eligible, following this season... If you're Washington, you want Daniels done before Caleb Williams and maybe even Drake Maye, so those contracts don't elevate costs.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Extend Daniels after 2025 to avoid QB salary inflation and lock in better terms.

The source advises the Commanders to extend Jayden Daniels after the 2025 season rather than delay into year 4 or the option year, reasoning that quarterback salaries only inflate and the team should lock him down before other top QB prospects (Caleb Williams, Drake Maye) reset the market higher. If Daniels is healthy and plays well, he'll deserve the money and the front office has budgeted for an extension next offseason.
