Jayden Daniels, quarterback for the Washington Commanders, dislocated his left elbow during a game against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. This marks the second time in less than a year that Daniels has suffered this injury. The incident occurred when he was trying to brace himself as he fell at the end of the first half while the team was attempting to score from the one-yard line with three seconds remaining. Coach Dan Quinn confirmed imaging showed no fractures, but Daniels will miss significant game time following his second dislocation in less than a year.

Story summary
On September 20, Washington Commanders faced an urgent challenge in their game against the Dallas Cowboys, both teams having suffered opening losses. The match at AT&T Stadium in ARLINGTON, Texas saw Dak Prescott break Tony Romo’s franchise record for touchdown passes by throwing four in a 37-20 victory over Washington. Commanders’ quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow again, mirroring an injury from last season that sidelined him for several games. X-rays on Daniels' elbow came back negative but the extent of the damage remains uncertain. The incident occurred when Daniels tripped and used his arm to brace himself during a play at halftime, leading coach Dan Quinn to replace him with backup Marcus Mariota for the remainder of the game. This recurring injury could significantly impact Washington's season as they now face another period without their star quarterback.
