**Commanders QB Jayden Daniels Diagnosed with Knee Sprain, Week 3 Status Uncertain**
**Ashburn, VA -** Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered a knee sprain during Thursday night’s loss to the Green Bay Packers, NFL Network Insiders reported. Daniels underwent an MRI on Monday, revealing the injury. While the team does not expect it to be a long-term issue, Daniels’ availability for the Commanders’ Week 3 game against the Las Vegas Raiders on September 21st is currently in doubt.
Head Coach Dan Quinn confirmed the MRI results, calling Daniels “day-to-day,” and stating the team will have more clarity after Wednesday’s practice. The Packers’ defense roughed up Daniels, sacking him four times and hitting him 12 times in the game. Veteran Marcus Mariota would step in at quarterback if Daniels is unable to play. The team signed Jadeveon Clowney to boost the pass rush.
