QB Jayden Daniels
Daniels is out once again with an elbow injury that he re-aggravated last week against the Minnesota Vikings. This means Marcus Mariota will make his 7th start of the season for the Commanders, and he's expected to be their quarterback for the rest of the season.

CB Jonathan Jones
Jones is dealing with a rib injury and won't play in Week 15. Jones has 25 tackles and a sack so far this season in his first year with the Commanders.
RB Chris Rodriguez Jr.
Rodriguez is dealing with a groin injury and won't play against the Giants. This means Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Jeremy McNichols will carry the load for the Commanders in the backfield.
OT Trent Scott
Scott is a healthy scratch for the Commanders. Scott has not played since the Commanders went to the Lone Star State in Week 7 to take on the Dallas Cowboys.
OT George Fant
Fant is still dealing with a knee injury and won't be able to play against the Giants. His last appearance for the team was back in Week 6 when the Commanders hosted the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football.
DE Drake Jackson
Jackson is dealing with groin and knee injuries and won't be rushing the passer against the Giants. He has yet to make an appearance with the Commanders this season.
Kickoff between the Washington Commanders and Giants is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. ET inside MetLife Stadium. Fans can watch the game on FOX or stream it on the Fox One app.
