Overview
- An MRI after Thursday’s loss in Green Bay confirmed a knee sprain, which NFL Network reported is not considered a long-term injury.
- Head coach Dan Quinn said Daniels has begun the return-to-play process and is officially listed as day-to-day.
- His availability for Sunday’s home game against the Raiders remains in doubt and will hinge on how he responds in practice this week.
- Veteran Marcus Mariota would start if Daniels is held out, with Josh Johnson next up on the depth chart.
- Daniels was sacked four times and hit 12 times vs. the Packers, limping after a late tackle by Kingsley Enagbare, as Washington also absorbed season-ending injuries to Austin Ekeler and Deatrich Wise Jr.
