Key Highlights
- And Washington, coming off a gutsy performance last week where it almost upset the AFC's top team, the Denver Broncos, had quarterback Jayden Daniels back for Week 14. The Commanders had an impressive first drive, but were unable to put the ball into the end zone.
- Minnesota would proceed to drive 98 yards on 19 plays in 12 minutes to take a 14-0 lead.
- The rest was history.
- Sadly, when Daniels was intercepted in the third quarter, he attempted to chase down Vikings linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel, but a Minnesota defender knocked him to the ground, reinjuring his left non-throwing elbow.
- Shortly thereafter, veteran tight end Zach Ertz suffered a gruesome knee injury that head coach Dan Quinn said the team believes is a torn ACL. AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIt was that type of day for Washington.
