Packers and Commanders give vital injury updates on health of star QBs Jordan Love and Jayden Daniels

There is some good news for two of the NFL's best, young quarterbacks and their respective teams. Both Green Bay Packers signal caller Jordan Love (quad) and Washington Commanders rookie Jayden Daniels (hamstring) are off the injury report, meaning they'll be under center on Sunday for their Wild Card playoff matchups.
Love's Packers will be in Philadelphia to face the Eagles and quarterback Jalen Hurts, who cleared the concussion protocol on Friday, while Daniels' Commanders are in Tampa to face the Buccaneers in the late game. Daniels' rookie season is going so well that it makes sense that he sees Sunday night's playoff contest as 'just another game.'.
Perhaps Daniels will feel differently once the ball is kicked off as he attempts to lead the sixth-seeded Commanders past the third-seeded Tampa Bay Buccaneers in an NFC wild-card game at Tampa, Fla. The Commanders (12-5) enter the postseason with a five-game winning streak and won 12 regular-season games -- just the fourth time in franchise history that Washington has won at least a dozen contests.
Daniels' Commanders are in Tampa on Saturday to face the Buccaneers in the late game. Love (pictured) and the Packers will be in Philadelphia to face the Eagles and QB Jalen Hurts. That success primarily is due to the multi-faceted quarterback who was drafted second overall. Daniels passed for 3,568 yards and 25 touchdowns against nine interceptions and also rushed for 891 yards and six scores.
'It's exciting, but you got to deal with those emotions,' Daniels told reporters. 'At the end of the day, you got to go out there and play ball. A lot of people are going to put a lot of emphasis on it because at this point, it's really win or go home.'.
