Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (elbow) has not yet been cleared for contact, HC Dan Quinn said Monday. Quinn didn't rule Daniels out for Sunday's game vs. the Vikings, but we'd bet against him returning before getting in a full week of practice. We're projecting QB Marcus Mariota to make another start this weekend, but we'll continue to keep you updated on Daniels' progress.
