Jayden Daniels Don’t miss too much time if there is, but he may not immediately look like his usual self.
Daniels Commander of Washington Head coach Dan Quinn said he will prevent him from practicing until Friday.
The commanders separated the first two games and handled the New York Giants 21-6 in Week 1, and three days later, the Green Bay Packers took care of the business with a 27-18 victory.

While the Philadelphia Eagles are still a favorite to win the NFC East, the Commander should join in as long as Daniels is healthy.
But Daniels’ injury can also be shown on the statistical table, even if he is on the scene, says Tom Christ, PhD, PhD, founder of the Fantasy Injury Group.
“So, Daniels is really funny. They just vaguely marked the sprain of it, not telling us what the sprain is. If you watch the video, his knee falls almost completely on the shin, which is a common way to get hurt by PCL, a term, term, their term, maybe first grade in 1, which is probably not too bad.
“However, what we’ve seen in history is the first game where the athlete looks a little slow, a little hesitant to cut the knee, a little unstable. Obviously, Daniels is obviously a huge sprint threat, so if he has the same stat line, I’d be surprised if he runs the same effect on the ball and does the same effect in his game. He stands out in his game. So it still works, but it may not be very effective on the ground.”

Daniels rushed for 891 yards, the ninth quarterback of all time, while rookie QBs had the most.
As for Minnesota Vikings Starting JJ McCarthy, his first year as a starter was not ideal. He is now dealing with an ankle sprain after being torn by a meniscus in the rookie season.
He may still deal with some lingering effects, too.
“The two to four weeks time range is quite consistent with a Level 2 senior sprain, where there are some, loose or unstable in the ankle we call,” Christ said. “This should be able to control, but what can happen there, especially when he pushes the ball and throws it, it may be a little less.”

“I believe they have a good-bye week somewhere there (week 6), so a lot of people are speculating that he might have to wait until that time to return, and if so, then he should be fine, but if they do try to speed up, then he might be really like a two-week absence, when he’ll have some problems with his initial throw.”
