Commanders Leave Door Open for Jayden Daniels in Week 15 After Elbow Setback

Coach Dan Quinn says doctors found no long-term damage, keeping the quarterback’s availability under review.

Overview

  • Washington was eliminated from playoff contention after a 31-0 loss to the Vikings, dropping to 3-10.
  • Jayden Daniels re-aggravated his left elbow and left the Week 14 game after returning from a four-week absence for the same injury.
  • Dan Quinn said the elbow is sore but expressed no long-term concerns and declined to shut Daniels down, pending evaluations this week.
  • Former quarterback Robert Griffin III and several analysts urged Washington to sit Daniels for the remainder of the season.
  • If Daniels is not cleared, veteran Marcus Mariota is expected to start against the Giants in Week 15.
