The Washington Commanders will only go as far as quarterback Jayden Daniels takes them this season. That theory was put to the test during the team's annual excursion to take on the Dallas Cowboys in Week 7.
To say Daniels' supporting case was depleted would be an understatement. Terry McLaurin missed his fourth consecutive game despite optimism earlier in the week. Deebo Samuel Sr. wasn't risked after his heel complication didn't get any better. Noah Brown hasn't been seen since Week 2, and the Commanders finally placed him on injured reserve.
That left Daniels with Chris Moore, Luke McCaffrey, fourth-round rookie Jaylin Lane, and practice-squad elevation Robbie Chosen as his wide receivers.
