The Washington Commanders could soon meet with their new franchise quarterback.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels is meeting with the team on Monday and Tuesday next week in an overnight visit.

Daniels is in consideration for the No. 2 overall pick alongside North Carolina's Drake Maye and Michigan's J.J. McCarthy.

Daniels has been mocked to the Commanders often as a result of the potential fit he could pose in an offense coached by Kliff Kingsbury, who coached Kyler Murray with the Arizona Cardinals and Patrick Mahomes during his days at Texas Tech.

With Kingsbury's experience working with dual-threat quarterbacks, getting Daniels into positions to help him succeed feels like a relatively easy thing to do. Of course, having a plan for Daniels and then executing it are two different things entirely. But there does appear to be a way to get the most out of Daniels early in Washington, and with Kingsbury's hands on the wheel, perhaps the rookie's first NFL season might be a productive one.

The NFL Draft is scheduled for April 25-27.
