0:00.0	And away we go, episode one thousand two hundred three of the Al-Galdi podcast. It is Thursday, November 20th,
0:22.8	20th, 2025. We now are a week away from Thanksgiving. And Thanksgiving weekend will
0:28.8	include the Washington Commanders versus the Denver Broncos at Northwest Stadium on Sunday
0:33.6	night football on November 30th at 820. We are not happy that that game did not get
0:39.3	flexed out of being a primetime game, but could it be that there is a belief that the quarterback
0:44.1	matchup for that game could slash will be Jaden Daniels versus Bo Nix? Daniels has missed the
0:53.0	commander's last two games due to a dislocated left elbow.
0:56.4	But did you see what ESPN NFL insiders, Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano had in an ESPN.com

1:29.1	from his elbow injury, end quote, from Fowler, quote, Washington's situation with Daniels is more
1:36.1	complicated from my view. sources have maintained that while Daniels could return as quickly as
1:41.5	three weeks from the occurrence of the injury. So week 13 versus Denver,
1:47.2	the team is loosely braced for an absence of five to six weeks just in case. That tells me that
1:52.6	shutting him down remains a possibility based on his durability this season, three separate
1:57.9	injuries and the team's current standing. Big picture talks about how to
2:01.5	proceed will play out over the coming days and provide clarity one way or the other, end quote.
2:07.6	So, at least according to Jeremy Fowler, it's actually possible that Daniels is back for this
2:15.4	game against the Broncos. Maybe that is why the game wasn't
