Commanders QB Jayden Daniels Injures the Same Left Elbow He Dislocated Last Year
- On Sunday, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a left elbow injury against the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium and was ruled out for the remainder of the game.
- The injury occurred with 3 seconds remaining before halftime when left guard Chris Paul stepped on Daniels' foot as he backed away from center at the Dallas 1-yard line.
- Medical analyst Dr. Jesse Morse wrote on X that Daniels appears to have re-dislocated the same left elbow he injured in 2025, when he also struggled with a sprained knee and pulled hamstring.
- Fox NFL analyst Tom Brady expressed shock upon seeing the replay, uttering a profanity, while The Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Nick Harris reported Daniels was carted off following the "devastating left arm injury."
- This setback arrives early in the 2026 season for the 2024 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, after the Commanders previously shut Daniels down for the final 3 games of 2025 to manage his recovery.
