Jayden did aggravate the injury when he returned later that same season versus the Vikings... He was not wearing one on Sunday and while, in hindsight, he should have been, Dan Quinn said there wasn't a discussion regarding one by the coaching staff.

Daniels' elbow dislocation raises questions about brace usage and potential surgery timing.

Daniels suffered an elbow dislocation in Week 2 and was not wearing a protective brace despite prior aggravation of the same injury last season; coaching staff did not discuss brace usage. Full elbow dislocations stretch tendons and create joint instability; while surgery was not indicated after the first displacement with no tears or fractures, the repetitive instability may warrant surgery either now or after the season. Specialists will examine imaging to determine next steps, but the decision to return him without a brace is questionable in hindsight.
