ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — Jayden Daniels practiced through his rib injury, and the Washington Commanders rookie quarterback is taking his pain tolerance and recovery on a daily basis.
“I’m still intact," Daniels said. “I feel good.”
Daniels took several big hits while gutting through the injury on the way to throwing his Hail Mary touchdown pass to beat Chicago last weekend and get the Commanders to 6-2 this season. He was a limited participant in a very light, no pads practice Wednesday, and Daniels is expected to play at the 2-6 New York Giants on Sunday.
His ribs are sore, and there's no real timeline for when they might be fully healed.
