Jayden Daniels (elbow) dealing with soreness, no long-term concerns

Commanders coach Dan Quinn said Jayden Daniels's elbow is "sore" but there's no long-term concerns.

Fantasy Impact

Quinn declined to say whether Daniels will play Sunday. It would be a bit of a surprise if he played in Week 15.

Jayden Daniels (elbow) struggles in return to play before injury

Jayden Daniels completed just 9-of-20 passes for 78 yards and a pick while also running four times for 16 yards in the Commanders' 31-0 shotout loss to the Vikings.

Fantasy Impact

It was a rough return for Daniels, who was knocked out of this game with an elbow injury. It appeared that he could have come back in, but Washington decided to hold him out in favor of Marcus Mariota for the sake of his long-term health. Pending his injury status, he will look to have a better outing against the Giants.

Jayden Daniels (elbow) questionable to return

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (elbow) is questionable to return Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Daniels was hit hard while chasing down an interception to prevent a touchdown return and landed hard on his left elbow. He was making his return after suffering a dislocated left elbow, so there is already concern as soon as he came up holding his left elbow. Marcus Mariota is now in at quarterback against the Vikings.

Jayden Daniels (elbow) to start in Week 14

Jayden Daniels (elbow) will start for the Commanders in Week 14 against the Vikings.

Fantasy Impact

Daniels return lifts the entire Washington offense. With the return of Terry McLaurin last week, Daniels has his full complement of weapons at his disposal and is locked in QB1 for what could be a tough matchup against a tricky Vikings defense.

Jayden Daniels (elbow) upgraded to full participant Thursday

Jayden Daniels (elbow) was upgraded to a full participant at practice on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Daniels was upgraded to a full participant at practice on Thursday. He was limited on Wednesday due to his elbow injury, but it looks like he is almost fully over it at this point. He seems likely to play in Week 14, which would be good news for all of Washington's fantasy-relevant players in a matchup against the Vikings.
