No surgery and no IR talk means this is a week-to-week absence, not a season. Daniels is rostered in 100% of Main Event teams, so the only question is who covers the gap, and nothing here says drop him. Washington is a 7.5-point underdog in a 40.5-point total this week anyway, which is not the game you were counting on him for. Hold, stream a quarterback, and stop refreshing the injury page.
