Jayden Daniels could be back under center for Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts, an absolutely wild timeline considering he dislocated his left elbow a mere two weeks ago. That’s a quick turnaround, even for a tough QB, and it’s got everyone watching this early NFL season.
Daniels Shakes Off Injury Scare
When asked about potentially reinjuring that elbow, Daniels was straight-up fearless. On Thursday, he told ESPN’s John Keim, “That’s what the brace for.” Talk about confidence, right? He is not letting that injury mess with his head, putting it all on the protective gear.
No Surgery, All Go for Daniels?
Daniels even dropped the kicker: “If I had that concern, I would have gotten surgery.” That tells you everything about his mindset. He is relying on that brace, betting on himself, and clearly isn’t interested in sitting on the sidelines if he doesn’t have to. The Commanders are definitely in a spot where having their QB out there means everything.
So, all eyes will be on Daniels this Sunday. Will he suit up? And if he does, can he truly play without any concern for that elbow? The answer to that question could define the Commanders’ momentum early this season.
