Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered an apparent arm injury in the second half of his team’s Week 14 game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Daniels’ injury occurred after he threw a fourth-down interception. The quarterback was trying to chase down the intercepting player, Andrew Van Ginkel, when Vikings cornerback Isaiah Rodgers came and threw a block on him.
Daniels went tumbling to the ground as a result of the block. As he did, he hit his left elbow – which he previously dislocated in Week 9 – on the ground. He briefly remained hunched over in pain on the field before making his way back to the sideline.
Originally, Daniels sat on the bench while receiving medical attention. Before long, he had the brace on his left elbow removed and made his way to the blue medical tent.

Daniels remained in the medical tent on Washington’s first drive after his injury. He eventually exited the tent wearing a towel on his head and without a wrap on his injured arm.
