Jayden Daniels and Marshon Lattimore Return to New Orleans for Commanders-Saints Matchup

The Commanders aim to solidify their playoff position as the Saints adjust to injuries and a new starting quarterback.

Jayden Daniels, the Commanders' rookie quarterback and former LSU standout, will play in New Orleans for the first time since his college days, leading an 8-5 Washington team with playoff aspirations.
The Saints, now 5-8, have shown improvement under interim coach Darren Rizzi but face challenges with starting quarterback Derek Carr sidelined due to a concussion and hand injury.
Second-year quarterback Jake Haener has been named the Saints' starter for Sunday, marking his first career NFL start after being selected in the 2023 draft.
Marshon Lattimore, a former Saints Pro Bowl cornerback traded to Washington last month, is set to make his Commanders debut against his former team, adding emotional weight to the game.
The Commanders currently hold the NFC's final playoff spot but face pressure from the Rams and other teams as they look to secure their postseason position.
