The Commanders got a reprieve on their quarterback: tests found no ligament damage in Daniels’ dislocated elbow, meaning no surgery and no injured reserve for now. He’ll be reevaluated after the Week 12 bye, with Marcus Mariota set to start against the Lions and then the Dolphins. Daniels, hurt in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s loss to the Seahawks, has dealt with three injuries. In six starts, the 2024 AP Offensive Rookie of the Year has 1,184 yards, eight touchdowns and two interceptions, plus 262 rushing yards and two scores. A return remains possible, with 3-6 record a factor.
