The 52-yard completion was the second longest of the game for Daniels, who had found Terry McLaurin in stride for a 61-yard gain earlier.

Caleb Williams, the top pick, struggled mightily, completing just 10 of 24 passes for 131 yards, no touchdowns and no picks. He did add 41 rushing yards, but needed to do much more damage through the air to give Chicago a better shot.

Daniels, who was an injury doubt entering the game, finished with 21 of 38 completions for 326 yards, one touchdown (the Hail Mary) and no picks.

The two young stars will have more battles in the future, but if the first matchup was a sign of what's to come, then buckle up.
