Nothing much went according to plan for quarterback Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders in 2025. Nagging injuries caused his demise, but head coach Dan Quinn continued to push the signal-caller onto the field, even when momentum was building around shutting him down for the entire campaign.

This came to a head against the Seattle Seahawks. The game was over, but Quinn failed to see the situation for what it was and took Daniels out. What followed was a dislocated elbow, and the Commanders eventually waved the white flag on his participation.

Quinn was heavily criticized in the immediate aftermath.
