Washington head coach Dan Quinn was asked about Daniels’ outlook during his media availability on Wednesday. The team plans to go over all the available information in a “final medical meeting” before providing an update sometime later this week. “We are going through a final medical meeting today regarding second opinions to put the plan together,” Quinn said. “We should have an update for you here in the next day or so. Being thorough through the whole process… gather all the info and then make the decisions from there.” Dan Quinn said they're still sorting through the medical opinions on Jayden Daniels, will then come up with a plan how to proceed.— John Keim November 5, 2025 More Football: 49ers Practice Decision Spells Good News for QB Brock Purdy Daniels suffered his gruesome non-throwing-arm injury during the fourth quarter of Week 9’s blowout loss to the Seahawks.
