""To me, it's an easy decision. We appreciate how much you want to play, but we're going to sit you down. We're out of the playoffs. Start gearing up for a great season in 2026. But right now, this season has gotten away from the Commanders. What are we doing? Why are we putting him out there? I know football players play, I got it. To me, a guy that's taken so much hits, had some injury issues, I'm not letting him play. But that's me, it's not my team.""
""Jayden Daniels hurt the same elbow yesterday and the Commanders should shut him down for the rest of the season..I respect that he still wants to play and we'll see what the Commanders end up doing"@AdamSchefter #PMSLive pic.twitter.com/cZ1HiC0ozF- Pat McAfee (@PatMcAfeeShow) December 8, 2025"
Jayden Daniels left the Week 14 game after a hard fall while chasing an interception and immediately favored an arm that previously suffered a dislocated elbow. Head coach Dan Quinn said Daniels was a little sore but has not been ruled out for the upcoming trip to the New York Giants. External commentators, including ESPN insider Adam Schefter on the Pat McAfee Show, urged the Commanders to shut Daniels down given repeated hits, ongoing injury concerns, and the team’s dwindling playoff prospects. Schefter recommended prioritizing Daniels’ recovery and preparing for the 2026 season instead.
