Week 8 in the NFL got underway on Thursday with the Los Angeles Rams taking down the Minnesota Vikings, and now we have a full Sunday slate in front of us. As is the case for every week, injuries are a central storyline.
Arguably, the biggest injury-related storyline that looms over Week 8 is the status of Commanders rookie sensation Jayden Daniels. The No. 2 overall pick is officially starting after he was listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears.
In the 1 p.m. games, Bengals wideout Tee Higgins (quad) has been ruled out against the Eagles and Titans QB Will Levis will also sit out again with his right shoulder injury.
