Bears vs. Commanders: Jayden Daniels' Injury Clouds Anticipated QB Showdown

Washington's Jayden Daniels is questionable for Sunday's game against Chicago, potentially sidelining the rookie face-off with Caleb Williams.

Jayden Daniels, the Commanders' rookie quarterback, is dealing with a rib injury and remains a game-time decision for the matchup against the Bears.
Dr. David Chao suggests Daniels is unlikely to play due to the injury's severity and the risks associated with playing without sufficient practice.
If Daniels is unavailable, veteran Marcus Mariota is expected to start, bringing experience and a similar playing style to the Commanders' offense.
Caleb Williams, the Bears' rookie quarterback, has shown significant improvement, leading his team to a 4-2 record with promising performances.
The Commanders' strong running game, led by Brian Robinson Jr., poses a significant challenge for the Bears' defense, which has struggled against the run.
