"Daniels struggled to get himself into a rhythm against the Minnesota Vikings. Brian Flores' creative blitz packages were too much to overcome, leaving Kliff Kingsbury perplexed and the signal-caller under constant duress. But things were going to get a lot worse. After throwing an interception when edge rusher Andrew Van Ginkle jumped a screen pass, Daniels inexplicably decided to chase him down. The inevitable blindside hit followed, and he fell hard on the same arm."
"That was the last time the fans saw Daniels on the field. He was looked over in the medical tent and listed as questionable to return, but the Commanders didn't risk him. He looked visibly dejected on the sidelines, and there are now far more questions than answers about where this franchise goes from here. Quinn cut a despondent figure during his postgame media availability."
Jayden Daniels returned to play despite a recent elbow dislocation and struggled against the Minnesota Vikings as Brian Flores' blitz packages disrupted Washington's offense. After an interception on a screen pass jumped by Andrew Van Ginkle, Daniels chased the rusher and absorbed a blindside blow that slammed his previously injured arm. Medical staff evaluated him, listed him questionable, and the Commanders ultimately held him out for the remainder of the game. Head coach Dan Quinn appeared despondent after also losing tight end Zach Ertz to a suspected serious knee injury. Fans reacted angrily as offensive protection and playcalling failures compounded the setback.
