Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Logs full practice Wednesday
Daniels (left elbow) practiced fully Wednesday.
After Daniels missed the last two contests due to a dislocated left elbow, coach Dan Quinn said Monday that the Commanders expected the quarterback to be full this week and start Sunday versus the Giants. Daniels' activity level to begin Week 5 prep thus isn't a surprise, and he thus will slot back in as the No. 1 for a QB room that lost his backup Marcus Mariota to a right MCL sprain this past Sunday against the Colts in London. Washington's skill-position group is particularly banged-up at the moment, though, as WRs Terry McLaurin (hamstring) and Stefon Diggs (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, while all of RBs Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) and Rachaad White (shoulder) and TEs Chig Okonkwo (hamstring) and Ben Sinnott (ribs) were limited.

Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Practicing Wednesday
Daniels (elbow) was spotted throwing during the open portion of Wednesday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Daniels has missed the last two games due to a dislocated left elbow, but head coach Dan Quinn told Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site on Monday that the quarterback likely will be a full participant this week with the intent to start Sunday against the Giants. Wednesday's practice report ultimately will reveal Daniels' activity level to begin Week 5 prep.

Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Return to action imminent?
Coach Dan Quinn said Monday that the Commanders are aiming for Daniels (left elbow) to have a full practice week and then start Sunday's game against the Giants, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
The timing of Daniels' likely return to action is fortuitous for Washington after fill-in QB Marcus Mariota was knocked out of Sunday's defeat to the Colts in London and eventually diagnosed with an MCL sprain in his right knee, per Ben Standig of The Team 980 Washington D.C. Daniels has missed the last games after dislocating his left elbow for the second time in as many seasons back in Week 2. Wednesday's injury report will reveal if Daniels indeed is kicking off Week 5 prep with a full practice.

Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Aiming to return for Week 5
Daniels (elbow) will be a full participant in practice for Week 5 prep with the aim to play against the Giants on Sunday, Oct. 11, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.
Daniels has missed the Commanders' last two games, including Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Colts in London, due to a dislocated left elbow that he sustained against the Cowboys in Week 2. It appears the third-year quarterback is trending toward playing in Week 5, and there is an added push to get Daniels back under center after Marcus Mariota aggravated a right knee injury during Sunday's game, resulting in rookie seventh-rounder Athan Kaliakmanis being inserted into the game.

Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Ruled out for Week 4
Daniels (elbow), per head coach Dan Quinn, was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts in London, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.
Daniels was able to practice on a limited basis this week -- "a huge step," Quinn said also via Jhabvala -- but the Commanders will sideline him for a second straight contest and give Marcus Mariota another start. It's unclear exactly how close Daniels is to returning to the field, but the door is seemingly open for him to get back out there in Week 5 against the Giants.

Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Limited again Thursday
Daniels (elbow) remained limited at practice Thursday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Daniels has been limited both Wednesday and Thursday as the Commanders prepare to face the Colts in London on Sunday. The 2024 second overall pick said he believes he will be able to play through the injury to his non-throwing elbow while wearing a brace, though surgery could be an option after the season. Marcus Mariota, who led the Commanders to a Week 3 upset win over the Seahawks in Daniels' absence, remains in the mix to start against the Colts as well.
