Daniels' injury scare for the Commanders eased after MRI findings pointed to soreness, not a structural setback. Insiders peg him day-to-day with a chance to practice in some capacity, and Washington will take a cautious approach to any return. For fantasy managers, Daniels remains a high-ceiling option if cleared, but expect a cautious ramp and potential limited work early in the week as updates roll in.

MRI data and expert takes frame the situation as hurt more than injured, with pain tolerance and swelling shaping his timeline. If he’s on the field next week, the upside stays elite; if not, Washington will lean on the next-best options while monitoring mobility and practice reports closely.
