The Washington Commanders rule out quarterback Jayden Daniels for Sunday’s Week 4 game against the Indianapolis Colts in London, and Marcus Mariota is set to start in his place. The matchup is played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Athletic reports Daniels practices in a limited capacity this week while recovering from a dislocated elbow in his left (non-throwing) arm. Multiple outlets, including Yahoo Sports and the Winnipeg Free Press, confirm the team’s decision and that Mariota will make his second consecutive start.
Other coverage frames the situation as an ongoing recovery timeline, with the Commanders aiming for Daniels to return soon. Across reports, there is consistent agreement on the game location, the quarterback change, and that Mariota is starting again due to Daniels being unable to play.
