Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels said Thursday that he is not worried about reinjuring his left elbow, telling reporters that is "what the brace is for," according to ESPN.
Daniels described his approach to a possible return as taking things "day by day" as the team prepares for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts in London, with his availability for the matchup still to be determined.
Managing the Elbow Injury
The quarterback's comments suggest he is relying on protective bracing as part of his plan to manage the elbow issue rather than treating it as a reason to hold back once he is cleared to play.
ESPN's report does not specify further medical details about the injury's severity or timeline, but Daniels' remarks indicate he is approaching the decision on a short-term basis rather than committing definitively to playing or sitting out ahead of the London matchup.
The Commanders' game against the Colts is part of the NFL's international series, with the two teams set to meet in London as Washington navigates Daniels' recovery during the stretch.
