Jon Heath, Broncos WireSun, November 23, 2025 at 1:01 PM UTC·1 min readJayden Daniels watch is on.
The Washington Commanders' second-year quarterback dislocated his elbow earlier this month, initially putting his status in doubt for a Sunday Night Football showdown with the Denver Broncos in Week 13. Daniels will be four weeks removed from the injury next Sunday, though, and there's at least a chance that he might suit up for SNF.

"From what I've been told, the plan in Washington is still that Daniels will return to the starting lineup once doctors clear him from his elbow injury," ESPN's Dan Graziano reported last week.
So, if he's cleared medically, Daniels could suit up against the Broncos on Nov. 30. If he does play, that would set up a matchup between the No. 2 and No. 12 overall picks from the 2024 NFL draft as Daniels and Bo Nix would face off for the first time in their careers, in a prime-time spotlight.
