Commanders | Jayden Daniels coming up big late as a rookie Mon Jan 13, 12:25 AM
Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels is 40-of-59 for 551 yards and six touchdowns and two interceptions when his team is tied or trailing by one score in the fourth quarter or overtime this season. He has also led Washington to five comeback wins in those situations.
| Footballguys view: Daniels also is now the only rookie quarterback to ever have a playoff game end with no punts or turnovers. He also is the only rookie quarterback to do that in the regular season, and he did it twice, in Weeks 2 and 3. He's more than rare, Daniels is already a 1 of 1 in the record books. |
Commanders | Daniels lead team to road playoff victory Mon Jan 13, 12:20 AM
Washington won 23-20 at Tampa Bay and will face Detroit next week. Jayden Daniels completed 24 of 35 passes for 268 yards and two scores. He also led the team in rushing with 36 yards. Dyami Brown caught five balls for 89 yards and a score and Terry McLaurin caught seven for 89 and a score.
| Footballguys view: Daniels was calm well beyond his years, which has become the norm this season. He took the offense on his shoulders as the Bucs shut down the Commanders running game. McLaurin was his usual brilliant self, while Brown had a breakout game of sorts, also drawing a pass interference penalty in the end zone. Washington could have made this easier on themselves with better goal line execution and Tampa gifted them a touchdown with a turnover deep in their own end, but a road playoff win is impressive no matter how it comes - even more impressive when authored by a rookie. Daniels will try to upset the #1 seed Lions in Detroit next week. |
Commanders | Jayden Daniels leads Washington past Bucs Sun Jan 12, 11:06 PM

RB Brian Robinson Jr. rushed 10 times for 16 yards and caught four passes for 22 yards, and RB Austin Ekeler added 27 rushing yards on eight carries and three receptions for 26 yards. WR Terry McLaurin caught seven passes for 89 yards and a score, and WR Dyami Brown also finished with 89 yards and a score. TE Zach Ertz added two catches for 23 yards.

Commanders | Jayden Daniels should be available Fri Jan 10, 04:25 PM
Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (quadriceps) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 10, and is not on the injury report for the Wild Card playoff game.
| Footballguys view: Daniels left last week's game with "leg soreness" although the Commanders had already clinched a playoff berth, so it wasn't clear how serious the injury. As expected, it was minor and won't affect Daniels status for his postseason debut at Tampa. |

Commanders | Marshon Lattimore expected to play Fri Jan 10, 12:09 PM
Washington Commanders CB Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is expected to play in the wild-card game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, head coach Dan Quinn said Friday, Jan. 10.
| Footballguys view: Lattimore and Mike Evans have had many epic battles when Lattimore was with the Saints, with the cornerback usually getting the best of it. The Commanders couldn't have contemplated that they would have him for such a key playoff matchup when they traded for him, but it could end up being very important in the story of their season. |

Link to story Commanders | Jayden Daniels should be fine Tue Jan 7, 12:20 AM
Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (leg) is dealing with leg soreness but should be ready for the Wild Card playoff game, according to head coach Dan Quinn.
| Footballguys view: "I'm not concerned," Quinn said when asked about the issue. "I'm feeling good going into the weekend. I'm actually feeling good on the team's health, so that's a good thing when you get to this time of year." As Profootballtalk.com notes, Daniels' tremendous rookie season is the biggest reason the Commanders turned around their fortunes and reached the playoffs for the first time since 2020. Now they'll try to get their first postseason win since the 2005 season -- when they went to Tampa Bay and beat the Buccaneers in the Wild Card round. |

Commanders | Zach Ertz scores again in Week 18 Sun Jan 5, 07:54 PM
Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz ended up with five receptions for 44 yards and a touchdown on five targets in Week 18 against the Dallas Cowboys.
| Footballguys view: Ertz was seen as just keeping the tight end spot warm for second round pick Ben Sinnott going into the season, but he ended up having solid fantasy value and helped Jayden Daniels a lot as a short range target this year. He was a dirt cheap free agent signing in 2024. Don't be surprised if Washington gives him a raise in an effort to keep him next season. |

Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin ended up with eight receptions for 62 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets in Week 18 against the Dallas Cowboys.
| Footballguys view: McLaurin was one of the best picks in fantasy drafts this year as Jayden Daniels lifted him and the Washington passing game to new heights. He'll likely go off of the board in the third round next season after lasting until the fifth in many 2024 drafts. |

Commanders | Brian Robinson totals six touches Sun Jan 5, 07:38 PM
Washington Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. ran five times for 10 yards in Week 18 against the Dallas Cowboys, while adding a 6-yard reception on his only target.
| Footballguys view: Robinson was a strong play earlier in the season, but multiple injuries seemed to catch up with him as the season went on. The Commanders backfield will be a committee next season, and it's not clear that Robinson's role at the top of it will be as large after he has worn down this season. |
Commanders | Austin Ekeler back with five touches Sun Jan 5, 07:35 PM

Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota completed 15-of-18 passes for 161 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 18 against the Dallas Cowboys in relief of starter QB Jayden Daniels. Mariota also rushed five times for 56 yards and a score.
| Footballguys view: This performance against a defense that came alive when Micah Parsons returned in the second half of the season, a defense that was frustrating Jayden Daniels earlier in the game, should raise eyebrows around the league. Mariota is worth carrying through the offseason in superflex dynasty leagues. |

| Footballguys view: Daniels had leg soreness during the game and was probably pulled for his own good. Mariota had a great second half and clinched the #6 seed and an easier wild card matchup for the Commanders. |
