Jayden Daniels Practices Fully for First Time Since Elbow Dislocation as Commanders Weigh Week 14 Start

Dan Quinn will run final contact evaluations through Friday to decide the Vikings game starter.

Overview

  • Thursday's injury report listed Jayden Daniels as a full practice participant for the first time since his left elbow dislocation.
  • Quinn said Daniels has not been cleared for contact and the staff will continue functional testing through Friday before a decision.
  • If cleared, Daniels could start Sunday at Minnesota; if not, Marcus Mariota is expected to remain Washington's starter.
  • An MRI after the injury showed no ligament damage to Daniels' non-throwing elbow, so surgery was not required.
  • A Daniels return would put Washington's starting quarterback, top three receivers and full starting offensive line on the field together for the first time this season, per The Athletic.
