The Washington Commanders needed a game to wash the stink off from the loss to the Ravens, and the Carolina Panthers were teed up for an absolute beatdown. Jayden Daniels was injured on his first play from scrimmage, a 46-yard run, and didn’t return after that drive ended in a field goal. Marcus Mariota got the rust off early, and finished the 40-7 victory.
That win showed a lot about the team, and the coaching staff, as they kept their top offense rolling, and the defense almost pitched a shut out. Jayden Daniels is week to week with a rib injury, but Dan Quinn said the team is hopeful that he’ll be able to play on Sunday when Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears come to town.
