"Jayden Daniels was far more agitated than usual during his appearance in front of the media this week. And the Washington Commanders quarterback has a pretty good reason why. He wants to play. He wants to be on the field, helping his teammates cope with some increasing injury issues. Unfortunately, that decision is beyond his control. Daniels is currently navigating a knee sprain that kept him out last weekend against the Las Vegas Raiders."
"Head coach Dan Quinn revealed that Daniels is working exceptionally hard to get back. He's relentlessly trying to prove his fitness, but the No. 2 pick in 2024 hasn't satisfied Washington's medical team enough to be featured right now. "He's working incredibly hard round the clock to get back. Ultimately doctors haven't cleared him just yet. He's absolutely doing everything he possibly can." Dan Quinn via ESPN"
"This is frustrating for everyone. Daniels, most of all. He's a competitive guy. The last thing Daniels wants is to be on the sidelines. The former LSU sensation knows how integral he is to the team's chances of going deep into the postseason once again. Still, if there isn't complete conviction in his mobility or the risk of additional damage, the Commanders must protect their franchise player at all costs."
Jayden Daniels sustained a knee sprain that kept him out of the last game and limited his practice availability midweek. He returned to limited practice Wednesday and Thursday but was absent Friday, prompting concern and ultimately a Week 4 game-day inactive ruling. Head coach Dan Quinn said doctors have not cleared Daniels despite the quarterback’s intense efforts to demonstrate fitness. Daniels is eager to play and feels he can contribute, but the team prioritized medical clearance and protection of their franchise player to avoid risking further injury.
