Commanders fans just got the injury boost they were desperate to hear

The Washington Commanders finally got some good news on the injury front as they prepared to head into a significant early-season clash with the Los Angeles Chargers.

Dan Quinn confirmed that starting quarterback Jayden Daniels had been medically cleared to resume practicing and was expected to make his return. Almost as important, his leading receiver through the early portion of the 2025 season, Deebo Samuel Sr., would also be on the field.

That was not at all certain at the beginning of the week, when it was reported that Samuel was dealing with a heel injury that was limiting his practice.
