Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has been ruled out for Sunday’s recreation towards the Las Vegas Raiders. Head coach Dan Quinn stated that Marcus Mariota will get the beginning.

“I said at the beginning we were going to be very diligent about his return to play and make sure we didn’t miss any steps. So we’re gonna be smart, not just fast,” Quinn stated. “The player wants to do everything all the time, that’s who he is as a competitor, which is what I love, but that’s how we’ll roll.”

Daniels, who sprained his knee throughout a Thursday night loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 2, did apply in a restricted trend on Friday, nevertheless it was not sufficient for the workforce to need to play him. This would be the first recreation the second-year quarterback will miss in his younger NFL profession.

While Daniels did not miss a recreation in 2024, he was out for many of a Week 7 matchup towards the Carolina Panthers with a rib injury, and he sat out the second half of the regular-season finale versus the Dallas Cowboys because of leg soreness. Mariota relieved Daniels each instances and thrived beneath offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury, finishing a mixed 33-of-41 passes for 366 yards and 4 touchdowns in a pair of Washington victories.

While Daniels stated he was “good” after the 27-18 highway loss to the Packers, his MRI indicated in any other case. He was sacked 4 instances and hit one other six instances within the defeat.

Other notable Week 3 accidents:

  • Tucker Kraft will probably be a game-time decision for the Green Bay Packers, head coach Matt LaFleur stated on Friday. The tight prevented a critical knee injury in apply, with the injury later decided to be extra of a “tweak.” Injured reserved is just not being thought-about. “He has to really feel snug and be cleared,” LaFleur said.

  • A toe injury kept San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy sidelined for Week 2, but it’s possible he returns against the Arizona Cardinals this week, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Purdy was a “lengthy shot” to play against the New Orleans Saints and missed the 49ers’ 26-21 victory. Now, says Shanahan, the quarterback has “a likelihood [to play].”

  • Emeka Egbuka was back at practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Friday after missing this week due to a hip and groin injury. The rookie wide receiver out of Ohio State is second on the Bucs with 96 receiving yards and leads the team with three touchdown catches. He is listed as questionable.

  • Chiefs broad receiver Xavier Worthy (questionable) remained restricted in apply and it is unclear if he’ll return for Sunday evening’s recreation towards the New York Giants. Worthy suffered a dislocated shoulder in Week 1 after colliding with tight finish Travis Kelce. We’ll see the way it goes,” head coach Andy Reid stated Friday.

  • Quarterback Justin Fields has already been ruled out for the New York Jets’ recreation towards the Buccaneers after struggling a concussion in Week 2.
