Ten years ago, NFL quarterbacks began using virtual reality (VR) for training, but details remained private due to teams’ reluctance to publicize its effectiveness. A recent episode of Netflix’s Quarterback featured Commanders QB Jayden Daniels utilizing VR for play recognition and decision-making under pressure. Coaches Dan Quinn and David Blough highlighted its benefits, including simulating various defenses and familiarizing players with stadium environments. Notably, former Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians noted the system’s impact on Tom Brady, contributing to their Super Bowl victory in 2020.
