Overview
- Head coach Dan Quinn confirmed McLaurin made the trip to Spain to start the on-field phase of his quadriceps rehabilitation.
- Despite the progress, McLaurin will be inactive against the Dolphins in Madrid, extending his absence after a re-aggravation following a brief Week 8 return.
- With Washington on a Week 12 bye, multiple outlets note Week 13 against Denver as a plausible return if rehab continues to advance.
- Quarterback Jayden Daniels did not travel due to a dislocated elbow, leaving Marcus Mariota to start again for the 3-7 Commanders.
- Injuries have strained the roster throughout the season, with safety Will Harris designated to return from IR and depth receivers carrying larger roles.
