The Washington Commanders are in fear over an injury to starting quarterback Jayden Daniels that caused Fox Sports commentator Tom Brady to curse on national television.
During the late-window game against the Dallas Cowboys, Daniels lost his footing after an offensive lineman stepped on his foot.
As he was going to the ground, Daniels held his hand out to break his fall, only for his non-throwing elbow to buckle.
Video replay clearly showed a pop in Daniels' arm, causing both Brady and on-air partner Kevin Burkhardt to grimace in pain.
'Oh, s***,' Brady said on the broadcast before he quickly caught himself and said, 'Excuse me.'
Daniels was taken off the field in a cart as the quarterback wore a towel draped over his head.

The injury to Daniels comes to the same elbow that led to him missing most of the back half of the 2025 season.
Daniels dislocated his left elbow in Week 9 of the 2025 season against the Seattle Seahawks, but eventually worked his way to a return in Week 14.
But in that game against the Minnesota Vikings, Daniels landed on his elbow after throwing an interception and was ruled out for the remainder of the season.
Now, with this new injury, it's possible that Daniels will need to undergo more serious treatment.
Daniels was replaced at quarterback by veteran Marcus Mariota. Prior to his exit, the third-year signal caller completed 11 of 17 passes for 96 yards and a touchdown, while adding seven carries for 69 yards on the ground.
