Commanders QB Jayden Daniels Dislocates His Left Elbow for the Second Time in Less than a Year – WTOP News
Daniels was carted off after re-dislocating his left elbow, and Washington said X-rays showed no fracture while MRI results were pending.
- On Sunday, September 20, 2026, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver DeMarcus Robinson suffered a right ankle injury during the second quarter against the Miami Dolphins and was carted to the locker room, ruled out for the remainder of the game.

- Later that day, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow after left guard Chris Paul stepped on his foot during a goal-line play with three seconds remaining before halftime against Dallas.
- Commanders head coach Dan Quinn confirmed imaging showed no fractures, though further testing was ordered; backup quarterback Marcus Mariota replaced Daniels to start the second half in Arlington.
- Daniels' injury mirrors a 2025 dislocation against the Seattle Seahawks that sidelined him for multiple games, raising concerns about durability as Fox Sports analyst Tom Brady expressed shock at the severity on air.
