Commanders' preseason disaster hits one player harder than anyone else

The Washington Commanders' quarterback room hasn't featured a whole lot of drama this offseason, because after years of trial and error, the team finally has its unchallenged long-term answer in Jayden Daniels.

Furthermore, veteran Marcus Mariota is set to return as Daniels' primary backup, meaning Washington's other quarterbacks will only be competing for third-string duties. Still, the Commanders should be expected to roster a third signal-caller, and it will be interesting to watch how the competition plays out.

In their preseason opener against the New England Patriots, the battle for the QB3 slot took center stage.
