He returned to the practice field ahead of Week 13, though he has not yet been cleared for contact. Once he is, a return to the lineup could be possible—but with Washington sitting at 3-9 and already out of playoff contention, it wouldn’t make sense to risk Daniels this season.
The focus should be on giving Daniels a full recovery, allowing him to enter the 2026 season healthy and ready to compete.
