Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels faced a rib injury during the opening drive of the game against the Carolina Panthers, leading to his early exit. After a promising 46-yard run, he was tackled and subsequently left the field for medical evaluation.

Despite attempts to continue, Daniels was unable to play and was seen in street clothes after halftime. Fortunately, sources indicated that his X-ray results were positive.

Before his injury, Daniels had been a key player for the Commanders, showcasing impressive statistics in the season's first six games.
