The Washington Commanders (5-2) and Chicago Bears (4-2) released their final injury reports on Friday ahead of Sunday’s matchup between the two emerging NFC contenders.
For the Commanders, all eyes were on rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. He did practice on a limited basis Friday, but head coach Dan Quinn said they pushed Daniels to see how he would respond.
“We really wanted to push it today,” Quinn said. “And so that’s why I think it’s important because you have to push it in all the, not just the quarterback specific things, but also within the game plan. So, we really pushed it today. And so that’s what really the next day and a half will be about. See how he responds because you have to, you have to do that.”
Daniels himself said he wanted to play, but it’s not up to him.
In other injury news, rookie left tackle Brandon Coleman missed his third straight practice with a concussion and is out for Sunday.
