Washington Commanders

With Jayden Daniels sidelined once again, the Washington Commanders will turn to Marcus Mariota as they look to snap an eight-game losing streak against the New York Giants.

The Commanders’ offense has struggled to find its rhythm throughout the season, and it will be tasked with doing so again without several key contributors. Daniels, Zach Ertz, and Chris Rodriguez will all be unavailable due to injury, putting added pressure on Washington to execute with a next-man-up mentality.

Washington enters the matchup in search of momentum in a season defined by close losses and missed opportunities. Sunday presents another chance to show whether the Commanders have enough fight to finally end the streak and end the season strong.
