The Washington Commanders are off to a rough 1-3 start this season, but some huge news just dropped for their Week 5 game against the New York Giants. Quarterback Jayden Daniels is expected to return from his dislocated left elbow for the upcoming game! That’s a quick turnaround for a nasty injury.

The Return Timeline

This isn’t some maybe, kind-of-sort-of situation either. Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters on Monday the goal is for Daniels to have a full week of practice. Yeah, a *full* week, getting ready to start on Sunday. Talk about pushing through it! A dislocated elbow is no joke, so for him to be back on the field so quickly, that’s just wild.

What This Means for the 1-3 Commanders

Going 1-3 is a tough pill to swallow, no matter what part of the season you’re in. Getting your starting quarterback back for Week 5? That’s the kind of boost a team needs when they’re looking to turn things around. Daniels’ return against the New York Giants isn’t just about getting a player back, it’s about trying to spark some life into that 1-3 start. They’re gonna need him to be ready to go, full steam ahead, if they want to get back on track this season.
