Commanders Get Jayden Daniels Injury News Ahead of Giants Game

Dan Quinn said Daniels is on track for a full week of practice as the Commanders try to stabilize a 1-3 start after Marcus Mariota's injury.

  • Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Monday the team expects quarterback Jayden Daniels to return from his dislocated left elbow for Week 5 against the New York Giants.
  • Backup quarterback Marcus Mariota suffered a sprained MCL in his right knee during Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in London, forcing Washington to turn to rookie Athan Kaliakmanis.
  • In relief, rookie Athan Kaliakmanis completed 15-of-33 passes for 183 yards and one touchdown with an interception, though Washington scored only once across his 10 drives.
  • "The goal is for him to have a full week of practice, a full week and start on Sunday," Quinn said, emphasizing the staff wants no setbacks.
  • Facing a 1-3 start, the Commanders are also monitoring safety Nick Cross and right guard Sam Cosmi for potential returns against the Giants.
