Sources: Commanders QB Jayden Daniels’ MRI and medical opinions revealed positive news, as his dislocated left elbow is not as serious as originally anticipated. There was no ligament damage & he won't need surgery.

Daniels will not be immediately placed on Injured Reserve.

This is all to say that Daniels *could* return this season, but as Rapoport mentioned, this only means he won't "immediately" be placed on IR, which means he *could* also miss the rest of the season.

It's a dicey call in Fantasyland, where we'd hate to keep a guy on our bench who won't take another snap during point-scoring season. The Commanders are currently 3-6 and in third place in the NFC East, so if we absolutely had to guess, we imagine they'll lean toward getting him ready for 2026. He should absolutely be kept in any free IR slots just in case. He will purportedly be re-evaluated during the team's Week 12 bye.

Injury was added to insult for Geno Smith in the Raiders' Thursday night loss to the Broncos.

On a night in which nothing went right for Smith and the beleaguered Las Vegas offense, the quarterback suffered a quad contusion on the opening play of the fourth quarter during the team's 10-7 loss to Denver, although head coach Pete Carroll expressed postgame it shouldn't be a long-term issue.

This will presumably be labeled "day-to-day" for now, with Pickett the most likely starter should Smith be sidelined. Next up is the Cowboys defense, so whoever mans center will actually have some fantasy appeal.

Bears injury report...

DNP: T.J. Edwards, Josh Blackwell, Dominique Robinson, Joe Thuney (rest)

Limited: Kevin Byard, Roschon Johnson, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Full: Luther Burden, Cole Kmet, Kyle Monangai, D'Andre Swift, Amen Ogbongbemiga

Related Players: Kyle Monangai, Colston Loveland

The Bears will have quite the decision(s) on their hands if Swift and Kmet are available for Week 10.

Monangai has looked absolutely fantastic, while Loveland just had a game-winning, 58-yard touchdown reception. Chicago probably can't put the genie back in the bottle with Loveland, who should be considered a top-15 TE option, while both Swift and Monagai could both be low-end RB2 options if the veteran really is back to full health.
