The Washington Commanders are ready to compete in the NFC this season. To do that, they’ll need rising star Jayden Daniels to be available at quarterback. Unfortunately, for the time being, that’s up in the air for their next game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

During an appearance on Get Up on the Thursday morning before the game, NFL insider Adam Schefter shared the latest on Jayden Daniels. Unfortunately, he still hasn’t been able to practice and is looking to get back on the field by the end of the week. Despite that, his status is still up in the air.

“Jayden Daniels did not practice yesterday,” Schefter said. “He’s not going to practice today. The team says the earliest he will practice is Friday. My understanding is Jayden Daniels is pushing to play. There are others who don’t want him to be out there.”

Following last Thursday’s loss to the Green Bay Packers, Daniels underwent an MRI on his knee. That would, ultimately, be diagnosed as a sprained knee. So, the Commanders avoided any major injury. However, in the short term, there was still the chance he could miss some time. Since then, it’s been a battle to get back on the practice field.
