UPDATE: Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has suffered a serious arm injury during the team’s 38-14 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night, casting doubt on his 2025 season. The injury occurred in the fourth quarter as Daniels attempted a comeback, but was tackled awkwardly near the goal line.
Witnesses report that Daniels landed heavily on his non-throwing shoulder while scrambling for yards, immediately signaling for medical attention as he writhed in pain. The team’s training staff rushed to his aid, and although he was seen walking off the field under his own power, he was clearly favoring his left arm.
This latest injury adds to a troubling season for Daniels, who has already battled a right hamstring issue and missed a game against the Kansas City Chiefs last week. He showed promise in the game against Seattle, completing 16 of 22 passes for 153 yards, along with 51 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown.
Daniels, who was named Offensive Rookie of the Year last season after leading Washington to a 12-5 record, now faces an uncertain path ahead. His injury is particularly concerning for Commanders fans as the team struggles to maintain momentum in a competitive NFL landscape.
The Commanders have not provided a timeline for Daniels’ recovery, but the implications of this injury could significantly impact the team’s season and playoff aspirations. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely for updates on his condition in the coming days.
As the Commanders regroup from this setback, all eyes are on the team’s next steps and whether they can navigate the remainder of the season without their star quarterback.
Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available.
