Overview

  • The Commanders fell to 1-1 with a 27-18 loss at Green Bay in a game widely described as one-sided despite the close score.
  • Austin Ekeler (Achilles) and Deatrich Wise (quad) were ruled out for the season, and several others exited, with Brandon Coleman and Trey Amos returning.
  • Jayden Daniels played all 69 snaps but was seen limping; local reporting says he had a knee MRI on Friday, with results not yet disclosed.
  • Daniels faced heavy heat, pressured on 46% of dropbacks as Green Bay’s blitzes limited his scrambling and Washington’s receivers struggled to separate.
  • Analysts criticized Dan Quinn and Kliff Kingsbury for a conservative plan, slow pace and poor clock management, with Washington now facing a 10-day reset before hosting the Raiders; Marcus Mariota would start if Daniels cannot play.
