NFL coaches (like Dan Quinn) need to better protect their quarterbacks

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn is under scrutiny for keeping quarterback Jayden Daniels in the game during a lopsided loss. Daniels, a key player for the Commanders, suffered a left elbow injury in the team's 38-7 defeat. With the game out of reach, questions have been raised about why Daniels remained on the field, risking injury. Quinn has not directly addressed his decision to keep Daniels in the game despite the Commanders' poor record of 3-6. This incident recalls criticism faced by other coaches for similar decisions, such as Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles last year. Daniels' injury may have significant implications for Quinn's future with the franchise, as the Commanders' season outlook dims.
