Patrick Mahomes’ heir is not Lamar Jackson, says Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw, who puts a surprise name on the list?
Bradshaw sees a new QB rivalry shaping up.
Terry Bradshaw is a true legend in the NFL world.
Known for his leadership, grit, and powerful arm, Bradshaw led the Pittsburgh Steelersto four Super Bowl victories during his 14-year career, earning Super Bowl MVP honors twice.
He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1989, cementing his legacy as one of the all-time greats.
Recently, Bradshaw weighed in on the current state of NFL quarterbacks and who he believes will take the reins in the future.
Unsurprisingly, he chose Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes as the best quarterback in the game right now.
“Considering the Super Bowls he’s won recently,” Bradshaw said, Mahomes is still the top dog in the league.
With his two MVP awards, three Super Bowl appearances, and countless jaw-dropping plays, Mahomes remains a perennial favorite in MVP conversations.

The rookie QB Bradshaw believes will dethrone Mahomes
However, when asked who he believes will be the best quarterback three years from now, Bradshaw had an unexpected answer: “Daniels of Washington.
” Jayden Daniels, the rookie quarterback for the Washington Commanders, has caught Bradshaw’s eye with his incredible performances this season.
“The way Daniels has started his NFL career, it doesn’t surprise me,” Bradshaw said, highlighting how Daniels has quickly proven himself as a rising star.
Daniels’ stats back up Bradshaw’s high praise.
In his first five games, Daniels made NFL history by becoming the first player to throw for more than 1,000 passing yards and rush for over 250 yards in that short span.
His passer rating of 106.3% also puts him above other standout rookies like C.J. Stroud of the Texans.
Bradshaw isn’t the only one impressed by Daniels; even Lamar Jackson, the reigning MVP, has taken notice.
After their recent matchup, Jackson said, “Daniels deserves all the hype he’s getting.
He played a tremendous game out there.”
While some have compared Daniels to Jackson due to their dual-threat capabilities, Daniels isn’t thrilled by the comparisons.
“I don’t like when people try to compare me to Lamar.
We’re two different players.
I want to be known as Jayden Daniels, not the next such-and-such,” Daniels stated. Still, with his record-breaking start and Bradshaw’s endorsement, it’s clear that Daniels is on the path to greatness.
