The trauma suffered by this fan base during the Daniel Snyder era is real, but it's time to lay the ghosts of quarterbacks past to rest.

The Washington Commanders will be without quarterback Jayden Daniels for Monday night's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Once again, backup QB Marcus Mariota steps into the starting lineup. The veteran journeyman is 1-1 in his two starts this season with 363 yards passing, three touchdowns and one interception. Against the Cowboys, Mariota completed 4 of 10 passes for 63 yards and a pick six.

Wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel returned to practice Thursday for the Washington Commanders, but coach Dan Quinn confirmed that quarterback Jayden Daniels will miss the team’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
