Jayden Daniels is out for the Washington Commanders' Week 3 game against the Las Vegas Raiders due to a knee sprain he suffered during their Week 2 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He did not practice during the week leading up to the game and was officially ruled out by the team's head coach, Dan Quinn. The Commanders are taking a cautious approach to his recovery, aiming for a smart and safe return rather than a quick one. Backup quarterback Marcus Mariota will start in his place. There has been no public estimate on how long Daniels will be out beyond missing this game, but it appears the team is managing the injury day-to-day to avoid further damage.
