    The NFL season witnesses many young players’ incredible performances, but only a few can win hearts, standing tall among the experienced veterans. Based on Week 8 records, these are the top five players under 25 who outshone other players. Let’s dive in.

    Jayden Daniels—Commanders (24)

    In his sophomore NFL season, Jayden Daniels impacted the team. Known for fine mobility, the champion amassed 1,031 yards, followed by eight touchdowns, a stunning height for players his age. He holds a 97.7 QBR rating while rushing first over 200 yards. This signifies he could be in MVP-worthy discussions in the future.

    The 24-year-old quarterback also etched his name among the finest QBs for a reason. The young player notched 6 sacks and 4 fumbles, precisely a league-leading record already. He is also considered among the top 5 for stellar defensive sync.

    Bijan Robinson- Atlanta Falcons

    This champion can lead the defense like an experienced player. Until now, this young RB has captured 5.4 yards per carry on 97 rushing yards. His impact is visible in the Falcons’ offense in such a short span of time.

    Jalen Carter—Eagles (24)

    Against the Giants matchup, Jalen Carter has earned plaudits from the NFL world and fans alike for his star-studded performance. He tallied three solo tackles and 2.0 sacks. His presence took the team to a 28-3 win after defeating the Giants. He played a season high with 96 percent of defense snaps for the Eagles, resulting in his best performance this season.

    CJ Stroud — Houston Texans (23)

    This young QB’s icy calm demeanor makes him a good player. He is a pro in calculating defense. In his six games, Stroud could grab two touchdowns and only 3 turnovers.

    These young players truly proved that age is just a number, and hard work and results are all that matter.
