"Jayden Daniels is looking to convince the Washington Commanders' coaching and medical staff that he's healthy enough to participate this weekend against the Minnesota Vikings. And it took one practice session heading into the contest for the signal-caller to make a statement. Daniels hasn't been seen in a regular-season setting since dislocating his elbow against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday Night Football. He returned to practice last week, but the medical staff didn't clear him for contact."
"The Commanders are planning to ramp up testing in specific areas. They are also going to take it all the way through to the final injury designations. "Optimistic he'll get a lot of reps in practice, but I'm going to take it all the way through Friday... We'll have to simulate as much as we can... He has not been cleared for contact." Dan Quinn"
Jayden Daniels resumed practice after dislocating his elbow and is attempting to prove he is healthy enough to play against the Minnesota Vikings. He has not played in a regular-season game since the injury and returned to practice last week without being cleared for contact. Daniels practiced this week without a brace, suggesting improved comfort with the elbow, though protective gear remains likely if cleared. The Commanders plan increased testing and will evaluate him through Friday before final injury designations. Head coach Dan Quinn expressed optimism about reps but confirmed that contact clearance has not been granted.
