Commanders QB Jayden Daniels Frustrated and Disappointed by Injuries He Calls 'Freak Accidents'
Jayden Daniels played only seven games due to multiple injuries, including a re-aggravated dislocated elbow, leading the Commanders to end his season early for health reasons.
- Monday, the Washington Commanders shut down Jayden Daniels, Washington Commanders quarterback, for the season after a dislocated elbow was re‑aggravated in Week 14 at Minnesota.
- After dislocating his non-throwing elbow trying to score inside the 5-yard line on Oct. 5, Daniels returned on Dec. 7 but aggravated it after linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel shoved him.
- This season Daniels completed 60.6% of his passes and injuries limited him to seven games with a passer rating slide from 100.1 to 88.1.
- With Daniels sidelined, Marcus Mariota will start on Saturday against the Philadelphia Eagles, while Daniels remains on the active roster to practice and run scout team reps.
- Looking ahead, Daniels said he is focused on rehab and called the injuries 'just freak accidents,' adding `I don't want to miss games at all` and `Be out there, be supportive and bring the juice and energy.
