The Washington Commanders were already without Jayden Daniels in Week 3 and his status for Week 4 remains uncertain. Without the reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year, Marcus Mariota would be in line for the start in his return to Mercedes-Benz Stadium against a Falcons team in desperate need of momentum.
And the Dirty Birds got exactly that as the injury news just went from bad to worse for Dan Quinn's squad. It isn't just Daniels who is at risk of missing Week 4—another offensive difference-maker could be inactive on Sunday. It was reported yesterday that star wide receiver Terry McLaurin's quad injury suffered in Week 3 is still affecting him, suggesting his Week 4 availability is very much in doubt.
