The worst thing that could happen to the Washington Commanders is losing Jayden Daniels.
That happened on Sunday.
While playing against the Carolina Panthers, Jayden Daniels suffered an apparent injury to his ribs and was spotted working on them while on the sidelines.
Soon, cameras would catch him heading to the locker room.

It was soon revealed that Jayden Daniels was going to get an X-ray.
Daniels has been using virtual reality simulation since his days at LSU, so losing him would be devastating for the team.
The team says he is officially questionable to return with a rib injury. Marcus Mariota is in at quarterback.
Commanders Praying That Jayden Daniels Will Be Okay And Return
Injuries are an unfortunate inevitability in the NFL, and Week 7 is no exception.
The Commanders’ rookie quarterback, Jayden Daniels, was seen getting his rib area checked out by trainers on the sideline.
He was then taken into the blue medical tent, emerged, and still appeared to be in pain, so he was then taken to the locker room for x-rays.
Under Daniels, the Commanders have the second-best scoring offense in football (29.7 points per game).
Daniels has thrown for 1,404 yards, six touchdowns, and just two interceptions. He’s also rushed for 322 yards and four touchdowns.
As a rookie, he has an impressive 75.3 completion percentage, a 107.1 passer rating, and a 73,7 QB.
