Commanders QB Marcus Mariota leaves game against Eagles with an injured right hand
- Dec. 20, 2025, Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota left the Week 16 game early in the third quarter with an injured right hand, and third-string Josh Johnson replaced him.
- Because Jayden Daniels is out for the season, Marcus Mariota had been starting, and the Commanders had just three healthy quarterbacks on their depth chart Saturday.
- Team officials reported Mariota cleared concussion protocol after evaluation but was questionable to return with an injured right hand; he was 7-for-14 for 95 yards when he left.
- If Mariota cannot return, the Commanders will need to rely on Josh Johnson after Philadelphia Eagles' 17-play, 83-yard TD drive, with Washington leading 10-7.
- The Commanders turned to veteran Josh Johnson, a 39-year-old who has played for 14 NFL teams, last started for the 2021 Baltimore Ravens, and had brief appearances this season without throwing a pass.
