Overview
- Kickoff is Sunday at 1 p.m. ET at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on CBS with streaming on Paramount+, and sportsbooks list Washington around -2.5 with a total near 43.5.
- Washington enters 2-1 after a 41-24 win over the Raiders, while Atlanta is 1-2 following a 30-0 loss to the Panthers that included two Michael Penix Jr. interceptions.
- Daniels returned to practice after a knee sprain but remains a game-time question, and Marcus Mariota is slated to start if Daniels is not cleared.
- The Commanders' secondary depth took a hit with cornerback Jonathan Jones and safety Will Harris placed on injured reserve.
- Atlanta adjusted its staff this week with offensive coordinator Zac Robinson moving to the sideline and the firing of wide receivers coach Ike Hilliard, as both teams look to sustain strong early pass-rush production.
