Washington Commanders coach Dan Quinn's Monday update on starting quarterback Jayden Daniels' status was a good news and bad news situation.
The good news, Quinn said, is that an MRI exam showed the hamstring injury Daniels sustained in the third quarter of Sunday's 44-22 loss to the Dallas Cowboys is not a long-term injury.
The bad news, potentially, is that Quinn was unsure about his availability for next Monday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
'I'll have a better sense as I get closer to it, with the extra day and what that looks like,' Quinn told reporters Monday. ' ... I'll have a better feel for you guys when we get to Thursday.'
Daniels missed two games earlier this season with a knee sprain sustained in Week 2 vs. Green Bay. The 2024 NFL Rookie of the Year, Daniels has thrown for 1,031 yards, eight touchdowns and one interception this season with 211 rushing yards and one rushing score.
If he's unable to go, Marcus Mariota would be called upon to make his third start of the season for the Commanders (3-4) against the Chiefs (4-3). The 11th-year backup has thrown for 426 yards, three touchdowns and two picks this season, including one returned for a touchdown after replacing Daniels in Sunday's loss.
