Dan Quinn gives Jayden Daniels injury update that only delays the inevitable
"The Washington Commanders wasted no time in placing veteran cornerback Marshon Lattimore and wide receiver Luke McCaffrey on injured reserve. However, they did not do the same with superstar quarterback Jayden Daniels. That gave fans some hope that the signal-caller would be able to return from a dislocated shoulder at some stage during the 2025 campaign. Just what the point would be if the Commanders keep losing is anyone's guess, but it represented a glimmer of promise nonetheless."
"medical team is still acquiring information. Quinn stated that a final meeting would take place on Wednesday, during which they would outline the problem and the expected recovery time before deciding on an official plan of action. "We are going through a final medical meeting today regarding second opinions to put the plan together. We should have an update for you here in the next day or so. Being thorough through the whole process... gather all the info and then make the decisions from there.""
"They are not giving up on the season, as evidenced by general manager Adam Peters' decision to stand pat at the 2025 trade deadline. But if they cannot win any of their last two games before the bye week, which also includes an international contest versus the lowly Miami Dolphins, the white flag must be waved. That means taking Daniels' recovery slowly."
The Commanders placed Marshon Lattimore and Luke McCaffrey on injured reserve but did not do the same with Jayden Daniels. Fans saw a chance for Daniels to return from a dislocated shoulder during the 2025 season. Head coach Dan Quinn said no decisions are final while the medical team gathers information and holds a final meeting to consider second opinions and recovery timelines. General manager Adam Peters stood pat at the trade deadline, signaling no major roster moves. The team plans to be cautious with Daniels' rehab and acknowledges that he could miss the second half of 2025 and that playoff prospects are minimal.
