Daniels Has Chance to Start for Commanders vs. Colts in London Despite Elbow Injury, Quinn Says – WTOP News
Marcus Mariota will start again after Daniels was ruled out with a dislocated left elbow, and Washington said its quarterback remains close to returning.
- On Friday, Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn ruled quarterback Jayden Daniels out for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts in London, confirming veteran Marcus Mariota will make his second consecutive start at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
- Daniels dislocated his left elbow on September 20, marking his second such injury since last season; though he traveled to London, he could not clear the necessary medical hurdles required to play.
- Veteran backup Mariota guided Washington to a 33-31 upset of the Seattle Seahawks last week, completing 19 of 31 passes for 183 yards and three touchdowns—his first multi-TD game since 2022.
- Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen, preparing for the matchup, noted both quarterbacks possess similar mobility, forcing his team to double defensive research to ensure disciplined rush lanes and coverage.
- Washington remains optimistic Daniels could return in Week 5 against the New York Giants, with coaches planning to evaluate his readiness from both medical and performance standpoints before then.
