"Grant Paulsen from 106.7 The Fan revealed that Daniels' knee problem was serious enough to get an MRI following the game. That raised alarm bells among the fan base, but head coach Dan Quinn wasn't going to confirm anything one way or another until getting back into the groove after a long weekend to heal their wounds."
"Considering that Daniels and wide receiver Terry McLaurin are already playing catch-up in their pursuit of improving chemistry, this is far from ideal. At the same time, the Commanders cannot take any chances. They need their franchise player on the field. If that means taking precautions throughout the week, it's a small price to pay. Daniels is capable of playing through pain. He proved that last season after suffering a broken rib against the Carolina Panthers. A knee injury represents a much bigger issue, especially for someone who relies so heavily on athleticism to get the job done."
Jayden Daniels suffered a knee issue during Thursday Night Football that prompted an MRI and raised concern within the Washington Commanders organization and fan base. Head coach Dan Quinn delayed full comment while planning to address reporters Monday, and team insiders indicated the injury could cause Daniels to miss some practice time before Week 3 against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Commanders are taking extra precautions to protect their franchise quarterback while balancing the need to build chemistry with receivers. Daniels previously played through a broken rib, but a knee injury presents a greater risk to his athletic playing style.
