Quarterback Jayden Daniels will sit out the Washington Commanders’ game against the New York Giants on Sunday after aggravating his injured left elbow last weekend.
Coach Dan Quinn said Wednesday that Daniels did not re-dislocate the elbow — which originally was hurt in a loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Nov. 2 — when the reigning AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year was knocked to the ground after throwing an interception in Washington’s 31-0 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
“Landing on it, like full-on” was the issue, Quinn said, noting that an MRI exam on Monday and further testing this week showed “no structural setbacks at all.”
