No surgery on the table as the Commanders talk about how to get Jayden Daniels back on the field
Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels injured his left elbow during a game against the Dallas Cowboys and was taken off the field on a cart. An MRI confirmed the injury as a dislocation—the same elbow he had dislocated the previous year. The team does not expect him to play in the following week's game against Seattle. As of now, the Commanders have not discussed putting him on injured reserve, and the team believes his return within the next month may be possible without surgery.
