Daniel has started five games in his 13-year NFL career, two with the Chiefs and three with the Chicago Bears.As to the question of whether taking an injection could have Chargers fans concerned. Well, as mentioned earlier, Tyrod Taylor took an injection prior to starting against the Chiefs in the 2020 season with a similar injury that the current star quarterback is dealing with.Before the start of that Week 2 game in 2020, Taylor was given an injection by Dr. David S. Gazzaniga. However, Taylor's lung was punctured, forcing him to miss the game as Herbert took over. Taylor is currently suing Gazzaniga for medical malpractice, asserting that the doctor was the cause of him losing his job.All things considered, Staley could rest his starter for just this week or risk further injury by putting Justin Herbert out there at less than 100 percent. We'll see what happens as the Chargers look for their second win of the season.
