A sigh of relief rings around the Washington Commanders fanbase.

That’s because quarterback Jayden Daniels will not have to undergo surgery and did not suffer ligament damage to his elbow.

Daniels dislocated his left elbow during the fourth quarter of the Commanders’ 38-14 loss on Sunday Night Football against the Seattle Seahawks. The team will reevaluate the 2024 first round pick after its bye on Week 12, opening a possibility of a return to the field later this season.

“It’s a good deal with no surgery,” Commanders coach Dan Quinn said on Friday. “Obviously that makes a big difference.”

The starting quarterback will also not be placed on the injured reserve list.

After starting the season 2-1, the Commanders are currently enduring a four game losing streak, with their defense giving up 135 points through those games.

Washington will host the Detroit Lions on Sunday afternoon before traveling to Madrid to play the Miami Dolphins at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu the following weekend.
