THE Washington Commanders (5-2) and the Chicago Bears (4-2) released their latest injury reports Friday ahead of Sunday’s game between the two emerging NFC contenders.
For the Commanders, all eyes were on rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. He practiced on a limited basis Friday, but head coach Dan Quinn said they pushed Daniels to see how he would respond.
“We really wanted to go further today,” Quinn said. “And that’s why I think it’s important because you have to push him in all things, not just in quarterback-specific things, but also in the game plan. So, we have him really pushed today And that’s really what will happen the next day and half will be about. See how he reacts because you have to do it, you have to do it.
Daniels himself said he wants to play, but it’s not up to him.
Separately, rookie left tackle Brandon Coleman missed his third straight practice with a concussion and is out Sunday.
Here is Washington’s final injury report:
Out: LT Brandon Coleman (concussion)
Questionable: QB Jayden Daniels (rib), DE Dorance Armstrong (rib)
The Bears will be without two starters in their secondary.
Out: S Jaquan Brisker (concussion), DB Kyler Murray (hamstring)
Questionable: OL Larry Borom (ankle), RB Travis Homer (finger), DL Jacob Martin (toe)
