Commanders' Jayden Daniels may miss Week 3 against Seahawks
Summary

Washington's quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a dislocated left elbow during the team's 37-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Coach Dan Quinn confirmed the injury, though X-rays revealed no fracture. Daniels sustained the same injury last season against the Seahawks, sidelining him for three games. As a result, the Seahawks are likely to face backup Marcus Mariota in their upcoming matchup. Despite the setback for Washington, the Seahawks cannot underestimate their opponent.
