\nWashington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels\u2019 return from an injury to his non-throwing shoulder didn\u2019t last long as he exited Sunday\u2019s game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Daniels threw an interception to Vikings linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel, who tapped the ball to himself and nearly returned it for a touchdown. It was on the return where Daniels was hurt again.
As he ran back to try to cover Van Ginkel, Vikings cornerback Isaiah Rodgers pushed Daniels to the ground. The second-year quarterback tried to brace himself as hit the ground on his injured left shoulder. He was able to run off the field but was immediately checked out by trainers.
Daniels was removed from the game in place of Marcus Mariota. He was listed as questionable to return.
He was 9-of-20 for 78 yards with the interception. He was sacked twice.
The Commanders were being held scoreless when Daniels threw the interception. Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy found Josh Oliver for a touchdown on Minnesota\u2019s subsequent drive.
Daniels initially suffered the dislocated shoulder against the Seattle Seahawks. The Commanders faced backlash for keeping him in the game down 31 points in the fourth quarter.
He missed the last three games after the injury, but Washington hasn\u2019t had any luck getting back into the win column. Going into Week 14, Washington was on a seven-game losing streak.<\/p>\n
