Jayden Daniels not expected to have surgery or go on IR, will be 'week to week'

No IR means no decision. Daniels is rostered in 100% of leagues and carries a 345-point season projection, so cutting him over a week of rest would be an expensive way to save a bench slot. This week is a write-off anyway: Washington are 7.5-point underdogs in a 40.5-point total against Seattle, which is not the spot you were hoping to force him into. Hold him, start whatever backup you have, and stop refreshing the injury page.
