Jayden Daniels injury update: Commanders QB will avoid injured reserve after dislocating elbow
CBS Sports reports Jayden Daniels dislocated his elbow but will avoid injured reserve, landing week-to-week. He sits out Sunday against Seattle, with Marcus Mariota starting for the 0-2 Commanders.
Daniels is considered week-to-week and will miss Sunday's game against the Seahawks, with Marcus Mariota set to start for 0-2 Washington
Sharp take
Sharp SixHoldNo IR means no roster relief, and Daniels is rostered in 100% of leagues that matter. Week-to-week on an elbow is not a cut, so hold him and start someone else for as long as it takes. Mariota is the actual decision, and he is a bad one: 9.9 points in Week 2, a 40.5 total, and a 7.5-point underdog script against Seattle. Stream a quarterback elsewhere. Leave Mariota on the wire.
