Jayden Daniels Injury Update Following the Commanders QB Undergoing Imaging
Dan Quinn said Daniels has no fracture and will undergo more imaging as Washington turns to Marcus Mariota.
- On Sunday, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow during a 37-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Arlington. Head coach Dan Quinn confirmed the injury; Daniels will undergo further imaging tests on Monday.
- The injury occurred at the end of the first half when Daniels' feet were stepped on, causing his elbow to bend backward. This marks the second time in less than one year he has dislocated the same left elbow.
- Receiver Terry McLaurin said, "It took the air out of us a little bit," while running back Rachaad White described emotional reactions in the postgame locker room. Teammates rallied around the situation with support.
- Veteran Marcus Mariota will take over as starting quarterback for the 0-2 Commanders while Daniels recovers. Quinn anticipates Daniels returning this season, telling Mariota, "I haven't had any reason to think otherwise."
- Washington faces a home opener next week against defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks. Mariota will lead the offense as the team enters Week 3 seeking to improve from their 0-2 start.
