"After missing the Washington Commanders' defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs, quarterback Jayden Daniels was back in the lineup for a crucial Sunday Night Football clash with the Seattle Seahawks. This was the morale boost everyone associated with the franchise needed at a critical time. There was no Terry McLaurin for Daniels to depend upon once again. The wide receiver reaggravated his quad/hip flexor injury in his first game back, and reports suggest he might be out until after the bye week. But with the former LSU standout under center, fans always feel like Washington has a chance."
"It was not going to be easy. The Seahawks are among the leading contenders in the NFC, boasting a formidable road record and a well-balanced offense with very few weaknesses. That is not the case with the Commanders this time around, so Daniels was under significant pressure as the national NFL audience watched intently. On a night where the Commanders retired legendary wide receiver Art Monk's No. 81 jersey and wore their Super Bowl era jerseys, there was an extra sense of occasion at Northwest Stadium."
Jayden Daniels returned to the Commanders' lineup after missing the loss to the Chiefs, providing a needed morale boost. Terry McLaurin reinjured his quad/hip flexor and may be sidelined until after the bye week. Seattle presented a difficult matchup as an NFC contender with a strong road record and balanced offense. The Commanders honored Art Monk with a jersey retirement and wore Super Bowl era uniforms, adding occasion to the game. Daniels entered with a recent low-grade hamstring strain but ramped up practice work. The game unfolded poorly, and Daniels could not lift the team out of its freefall.
