Commanders fall to Seahawks 38-14, lose Jayden Daniels to arm injury

WASHINGTON - Jayden Daniels left Washington’s game against Seattle with 7:29 remaining Sunday night after his left, nonthrowing arm bent awkwardly during a tackle near the goal line in the team’s 38-14 loss to the Seahawks.

Daniels exits injured

Daniels walked to the tunnel under his own power, but it marked yet another setback in a spiraling season for the second-year quarterback and Washington.

Daniels had just returned from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for last week’s game in Kansas City. Earlier this season, he missed two games with a knee injury.

Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold opened the game with 17 straight completions against Washington’s struggling defense. By halftime, he was 16-for-16 for 282 yards and four touchdowns.

Monk honored

At halftime, Washington retired Hall of Fame receiver Art Monk's No. 81. Monk caught a then-record 106 passes in 1984. He was also the NFL's career leader in receptions at one point in his career.

Monk played with Washington from 1980-93 and was a part of all three of the franchise's Super Bowl-winning teams.

The Commanders host Detroit next Sunday in a rematch of their victory in last season's playoffs.
