Jayden Daniels

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports “signs point” to Jayden Daniels (ribs) playing in Week 8 against the Bears.

Daniels went down with the rib injury in Week 7 and did not return. He was held out of the first two practices of the week but got in some work after the media portion of Friday’s session. Daniels also took part in Saturday’s walkthrough. The rookie will need to get final clearance after pre-game warmups but is on track to suit up versus the Bears. Daniels has played so well through two months that he will remain in the QB1 ranks, even as he guts it out through the rib injury versus a shut-down Chicago defense.
