"Jayden Daniels has cut a visibly frustrated figure over the last fortnight. The Washington Commanders' franchise player was more agitated in front of the media. He was clamoring to play in Week 4 against the Atlanta Falcons, but the medical staff erred on the side of caution. The Commanders were never in their loss to the Falcons. Their offense was missing several key personnel, and the defense couldn't raise the stakes."
"Daniels was a full participant in practice and didn't carry an injury designation into the clash. He will be wearing a knee brace, but offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury doesn't believe this will limit his playmaking abilities versus a ferocious Los Angeles Chargers defense. This was the morale boost everyone associated with the Commanders needed. They were treading water against a potential playoff challenger at SoFi Stadium. Marcus Mariota did an admirable job deputizing for Daniels,"
Jayden Daniels missed time and was visibly frustrated after being held out in Week 4 despite wanting to play. The Commanders struggled in the loss to the Falcons with missing offensive personnel and a defense that failed to elevate play. Daniels returned to full participation in practice, carried no injury designation, and will wear a knee brace that Kliff Kingsbury expects will not limit his playmaking. Marcus Mariota filled in admirably, but the team regained momentum once Daniels forced a turnover-led opening and found his rhythm. The Commanders fought for a memorable victory, restoring confidence in the roster.
