"Daniels has been making all of the right noises on social media. Revelations to friend Brandon Aiyuk and a cryptic social media post suggested he would make progress in the near future. Adam Schefter from ESPN confirmed as much, but the respected insider erred on the side of caution regarding his potential involvement in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos on Sunday Night Football."
"Daniels will be pushing hard to convince the coaching staff he can make a lasting contribution. But throwing him against the Broncos' vaunted defensive front after an extended spell on the shelf has the scope to do far more harm than good. If Daniels has to wait another week, that's fine."
Jayden Daniels sustained a dislocated elbow and has not practiced since the injury. The Commanders plan to return him to the practice field this week to assess his progress. Adam Schefter reported the move but called Daniels a long shot to play in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. Nicki Jhabvala confirmed there is no set plan for his game status and that the team will evaluate him after ramping up rehabilitation. Concerns exist about exposing Daniels to a powerful Broncos defensive front immediately after his recovery. A delayed return is acceptable to protect long-term health.
