Overview
- Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a left‑elbow dislocation Sunday and was ruled out after an X‑ray showed no fracture, the team said.
- Chicago rookie Caleb Williams left the Bears’ 9‑3 loss with a hamstring injury and will undergo imaging and further evaluation before a recovery timeline is set.
- Atlanta started veteran Cooper Rush in Week 2 because Michael Penix Jr. is not yet in full game shape after ACL rehab and Tua Tagovailoa missed practice with an oblique issue.
- Week 2 results reshaped narratives as the Panthers beat the Falcons 34‑3, the Patriots beat the Steelers 20‑3, the Bengals won 20‑6, the Packers edged the Jets 20‑17 in overtime, and the Bears fell from a 59‑point opener to three points this week.
- Multiple non‑QB injuries including Packers WR Jayden Reed’s neck issue and RT Zach Bako‑Bewele’s knee concern are under review and could create short‑term roster strain while teams await scans and medical rulings.
