Jayden Daniels attempts to calm elbow concerns ahead of the NFL Draft and insists he is 'perfectly' fine... after bizarre viral photo left fans baffled

Jayden Daniels insists he is 'perfectly fine' despite a bizarre photo of the LSU quarterback's elbow raising concerns this week.

The picture, which shows Daniels' elbow looking disformed as he throws the ball in a game against Alabama back in November, quickly went viral after leaving fans baffled on social media.

The 23-year-old appeared to have a golf ball-sized lump attached to his right elbow, sparking a number of scientific theories online.

However, on Thursday Dr. Laith M. Jazrawi, Chief of the Division of Sports Medicine at NYU Langone Orthopedics, told the New York Post that the lump was not a huge cause for concern and can be treated with either an injection or surgery.

Now Daniels, who will likely be a top-three pick at this year's NFL Draft, has played down the photo while reassuring fans that there is nothing wrong with his elbow.

NYU Langone's Dr. Laith M. Jazrawi believes the golf ball-sized lump is  'olecranon bursitis'

Daniels is expected to be a top three pick at next month's NFL Draft alongside Drake Maye and projected No. 1 pick Caleb Williams

He wrote on X: 'my elbow is perfectly fine .. stop the cap!!' along with cap and yawning emojis.

Dr. Jazrawi revealed Daniels was suffering from 'olecranon bursitis', which can either be painful or painless.

'You can get a cortisone injection, or you can surgically remove the bursa,' he said. 'The downtime for something like that is two to three weeks for a bursa excision, or you can play the whole season with it because it's generally not that painful.

'It's surgically corrected. It's not a reconstruction or a ligament repair.'

Daniels, who went from an extensive medical check at the NFL Combine, threw for 3,812 yards and 40 touchdowns with just four interceptions for the Tigers on his way to the Heisman last season. LSU finished with a 10-3 record overall and 6-2 in conference play.

He is expected to be selected in the top three of next month's NFL draft, alongside Drake Maye and projected No. 1 pick Caleb Williams.

The first pick belongs to the Chicago Bears - followed by the Washington Commanders and New England Patriots.
