Costly Mistakes Leaving Franchise QB Jayden Daniels & All-Pro Returner Marvin Mims Jr. in Blowouts
Dan Quinn said leaving Jayden Daniels in late during a 38-7 loss was a mistake; Daniels' left elbow dislocation could impact Washington's 3-6 season outlook.
- In Ashburn, Va., Dan Quinn admitted it was a mistake to keep Jayden Daniels in the game after he dislocated his elbow with seven minutes and 39 seconds left, trailing 38-7.
- Quinn said the coaching staff kept Jayden Daniels in because he missed two games for a knee sprain and one for a hamstring strain, aiming to get him more work despite risks.
- On the play, Daniels opted not to hand off, scrambled right but was tackled by linebacker Drake Thomas, and his non-throwing arm bent and dislocated as he braced on the ground.
- Marcus Mariota will replace Daniels and has already filled in for him multiple times this season, while the Washington Commanders face a bleak outlook with a 2% playoff chance.
- Conservative treatment often requires approximately six to eight weeks, with recovery depending on trauma extent; this timeline should influence Washington front office and coaching staff's offseason roster plans.
