Yahoo Sports NFL on Jayden Daniels
From the article
He returned from the elbow injury in Week 5 and ran for 103 yards and two touchdowns. The rushing alone gave you 22.3 fantasy points. Since then, he has 10 carries for 49 yards and no rushing touchdowns across three games.
STACKED’s take
Daniels' rushing production has dried up post-injury; no longer a must-play QB.
Daniels returned from elbow injury in Week 5 with 103 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns (22.3 fantasy points), but since then has 10 carries for 49 yards and no rushing touchdowns across three games (about 1.6 fantasy points per game from rushing). His passing has been inconsistent—300 yards and two touchdowns in Week 6, but his last two fantasy scores were 14.98 and 14.56. With Terry McLaurin out for the season and limited pass-catching options to replace him, the margin for success is smaller. Daniel Jones has adjusted expectations downward and no longer considers Daniels a must-play quarterback; if a better weekly streaming option exists, he's considering it.
