Commanders sideline Daniels for London clash as Mariota secures second start

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn ruled out quarterback Jayden Daniels for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Indianapolis Colts in London.

Quinn indicated Daniels could return in Week 5 if he participates fully next week. The Commanders also confirmed linebacker Frankie Luvu and tight end Chig Okonkwo will play after missing the last two games.

Commanders QB Daniels exits Week 2 clash vs. Cowboys with elbow injury

Daniels, the 2024 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, had been aiming for a bounce-back season after a difficult 2025, including a prior elbow injury that cost games.

Dodgers place Dalton Rushing on 10-day IL with elbow flare, Alfonzo recalled

Dodgers catcher Dalton Rushing was placed on the 10-day injured list retroactive to September 5 due to right elbow discomfort after his elbow flared during a pre-game throwing session; Eliezer Alfonzo was recalled from Triple-A. Rushing, who previously had a partial UCL tear, is unlikely to catch again this season and will likely be limited to pinch-hitting vs. right-handed pitching as Shohei Ohtani reclaims the DH. He’s slashed .249/.332/.466 with 12 homers in 250 plate appearances this year, with better numbers against righties, and his absence could affect Dodgers’ postseason plans.

Red Sox monitor Rutschman’s elbow as he sits again

Catcher Adley Rutschman will miss his second straight game for the Red Sox due to a nagging elbow issue. Manager Chad Tracy said the problem isn’t alarming and the team will monitor it day to day, using rest and different avenues to help alleviate it. Rutschman isn’t on the injured list and had begun his Red Sox tenure on the IL with wrist inflammation; in 15 games since joining Boston he’s hit .170 with two extra-base hits. The club has been dealing with a spate of injuries as it pushes toward the final stretch.

Yankees Reliever Fernando Cruz Sidelined by Partial UCL Tear

New York Yankees setup man Fernando Cruz has a partially torn UCL, with manager Aaron Boone saying he’ll seek additional opinions. A full surgery could sideline him for all of 2027, while a partial tear might be treated with an internal-brace option and could allow a September 2027 return; the team’s top setup arm has been effective this season but has struggled of late, complicating bullpen plans.

Rays reshuffle rotation as Jax lands on IL with elbow issue

The Tampa Bay Rays placed pitcher Griffin Jax on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to Aug. 6) with elbow discomfort and promoted Michael Grove from Triple-A to take his roster spot. The injury appears non-ligament-related, with Jax set for further medical evaluation. Tampa Bay already has Shane McLanahan on the IL, leaving the rotation thin and potentially prompting bullpen games or bulk outings from Steven Matz or Casey Legumina while Jax recovers.
