The meeting so far hasn’t been kind to Daniels, who threw an interception early in the game, which was glaring by how obvious it was that no receiver was on the route he was targeting. Fans wasted no time in reacting on social media.
“jayden daniels is a f*cking bum, maye was always better,” wrote one fan.
“Guess Bears fans were right, Daniels is a bust,” claimed someone else.
“This the dude they said was better than Justin Fields?” asked another fan.
“Brooo I was so ready for the truck stick,” joked another one.
The mechanics of the former Heisman Trophy winner were just off, according to some fans.
“Horrible throw lmfao wtf,” said one person.
“Daniel’s is a** but show us something we didn’t know,” wrote one fan.
