The Washington Commanders don't yet know if quarterback Jayden Daniels will miss any time with a rib injury that caused him to leave Sunday's win over Carolina in the first quarter, but they did find out they could still be effective on offense without him, John Keim of ESPN reports.
Daniels suffered a rib injury on Washington's first possession and was eventually ruled out. Marcus Mariota replaced him and completed 18-of-23 passes for 205 yards and two touchdowns while leading six scoring drives in the 40-7 rout.
Coach Dan Quinn said he had "no update" on Daniels after the game, saying more tests would be conducted Monday to determine the extent of his injury.
"I'll give you some updates just as soon as I find out tomorrow, but I do not have any tonight," Quinn said.
Daniels' mom, Regina, posted to social media that "he's fine," and multiple sources told ESPN after the initial X-rays that Daniels was OK.
