Top Jayden Daniels News

  • Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Named as Week 9 starter

    Daniels will start Sunday's game against the Seahawks,

    He returned to full practice participation Wednesday after missing the loss at Kansas City on Monday. Daniels made it through the week without any setbacks and will now return to the starting lineup, leading an offense that won't have WR Terry McLaurin (out - quadriceps) in Week 9.

  • Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Gets back to full Wednesday

    Daniels (hamstring) practiced fully Wednesday.

    Coach Dan Quinn told Tashan Reed of The Washington Post earlier Wednesday that Daniels was slated for a full week of practice, and he ended up kicking it off with no restrictions whatsoever in the first session of Week 9 prep. Daniels thus appears as if he'll miss just one game due to the low-grade right hamstring strain that he sustained Week 7 at Dallas. Friday's injury report will unveil whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.

  • Commanders' Jayden Daniels: To practice all week, per Quinn

    Coach Dan Quinn said Wednesday that Daniels (hamstring) will have a full week of practice in advance of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

    Daniels sat out Monday's game at Kansas City due to a low-grade right hamstring strain that he suffered Week 7 at Dallas, allowing Marcus Mariota to get a third spot start of the campaign. On Tuesday, Quinn told JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington that the Commanders "plan on him being a part" of the practice plan during Week 8 prep, but Quinn's comment one day later doesn't mean Daniels necessarily will be listed as a full participant all week. In the end, Wednesday's injury report will reveal whether or not Daniels was able to handle all on-field work.

  • Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Set to practice Wednesday

    Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said that Daniels (hamstring) had a good rehab session and will participate in Wednesday's practice, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Quinn didn't reveal whether Daniels will be a limited or full participant in Wednesday's session, but the Commanders anticipate the quarterback being on the field in some capacity for each of their three practices this week. If his injured right hamstring holds up, Daniels should start Sunday's game against the Seahawks. The second-year signal-caller missed Monday's 28-7 loss to Kansas City due to a hamstring issue and previously sat out Weeks 3 and 4 while recovering from a sprained knee.

  • Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Testing hamstring Sunday

    Daniels will test his injured hamstring in workouts on Sunday, and the Commanders think he has a chance to return in Week 9 against the Seahawks, Jay Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday.

    No matter how the testing unfolds, Daniels will still miss Monday night's game against the Chiefs, but he's made enough progress during the week to create some optimism for next week. Marcus Mariota will start on Monday night in Daniels' stead versus Kansas City.
