During the fourth quarter of Sunday night’s matchup against the Seahawks, Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a severe arm injury.
At the time, Daniels was enjoying a significant lead when he was tackled by Seattle linebacker Drake Thomas.
As he attempted to brace himself using his non-throwing left arm, his elbow twisted unnaturally, likely resulting in a dislocation.
Teammates quickly gathered around him in a concerned huddle, creating a somber atmosphere at Northwest Stadium.
Daniels exited the field on his own accord, sporting an air cast on his arm.
Before the injury, the Commanders’ record sat at 38 wins and 7 losses. Daniels had returned to the lineup after missing three games earlier in the season due to a hamstring issue and a sprained left knee.
Marcus Mariota stepped in for Daniels, and the Seahawks ultimately triumphed with a score of 38-15. Following a playoff appearance last season, the Commanders are now struggling with a disappointing 3-6 record.
This is a developing story.
