Commanders’ Jayden Daniels Dislocates Left Elbow in Seahawks Blowout

Early tests eased fracture concerns, with Washington expecting a multi-game absence.

Overview

  • Daniels suffered a dislocated left elbow on a late fourth-quarter sack near the goal line, with trainers placing his arm in an air cast before he walked to the tunnel.
  • Ian Rapoport reported negative X-rays and a Monday MRI to set a timetable, adding the injury is not as bad as feared but will sideline Daniels for several games.
  • Head coach Dan Quinn said the call typically yields a handoff or quick throw and conceded in hindsight that keeping Daniels in during a 38-7 game was questionable.
  • Veteran Marcus Mariota is expected to assume starting duties as Washington falls to 3-6 following a 38-14 loss on Sunday Night Football.
  • In a further blow to depth, Marshon Lattimore is believed to have torn his ACL pending MRI and Luke McCaffrey broke his collarbone, according to NFL Network.
