Dan Quinn regrets not pulling Jayden Daniels late in Commanders' blowout loss before QB's elbow injury
Our Summary
Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn faced scrutiny after quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a dislocated left elbow during a 38-14 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Daniels was injured with less than eight minutes remaining in the game, which had already become a blowout. Seahawks defender Drake Thomas delivered the sack that led to Daniels' injury. Quinn admitted regret for not pulling Daniels from the game earlier, acknowledging the decision as a mistake in hindsight.
Daniels is expected to miss several games, with no specific recovery timetable provided. The injury adds to Washington's woes, as cornerback Marshon Lattimore tore his ACL and wide receiver Luke McCaffrey broke his collarbone in the same game. Both injuries could be season-ending. As the Commanders' season falters at 3-6, these injuries further challenge Quinn's second year as head coach.
