Commanders' Jayden Daniels: Appears to aggravate elbow injury

Daniels was donning a sleeve on his left elbow Sunday in his first game action since Week 9, when he suffered an ugly dislocation that resulted in three contests on the sideline. He appeared to aggravate the issue when he got hit on a pass attempt in the third quarter in which the ball popped into the air and was corralled for an interception by the Vikings' Andrew Van Ginkel. Daniels yielded the Commanders offense to Marcus Mariota upon his departure.

Kyler Murray QB | ARI
Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Cardinals future in doubt
Murray (foot) might never play for the Cardinals again, with the team treating him like the Broncos did with Russell Wilson a couple of seasons ago, Jay Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday.
Many have speculated that this might be Murray's fate, given that he wasn't initially expected to have a lengthy absence and then ended up on IR. The Cardinals will have an interesting offseason discussion, to say the least. Will they use a potential top-10 pick on a quarterback, shop for another veteran, or even bring back Jacoby Brissett? Meanwhile, Brissett will remain the starter the rest of this season.
