Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a rib injury during the team's Week 7 victory against the Carolina Panthers, leaving the game and undergoing X-rays that showed no fractures or structural damage. Head coach Dan Quinn announced that Daniels is officially 'week-to-week', with hopes for his participation in the upcoming game against the Chicago Bears. Despite the injury scare, the Commanders secured a dominant 40-7 win, improving their record to 5-2, the best start since 2018. Backup quarterback Marcus Mariota stepped in effectively, while the team aims to maintain momentum in a season where both Daniels and the Commanders have been performing well. The matchup between Daniels and fellow rookie Caleb Williams adds intrigue to their potential clash if Daniels is cleared to play. The team's success hinges on Daniels' health as they strive for a potential playoff berth.
