Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels could be forced to miss more time as he recovers from a hamstring injury.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels won't play against the Chiefs on "Monday Night Football" due to a hamstring injury.

Veteran quarterback Marcus Mariota is Daniels' backup, and he will start for the Commanders on Monday night. Mariota is in his second season with Washington.

The Buccaneers will once again be without running back Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) and wide receiver Chris Godwin (fibula) for their Week 8 game against the Saints, coach Todd Bowles said in his Wednesday press conference. Tampa Bay has a bye in Week 9, which played a factor in the decision.

“Learning to surround myself with the right people off the court” was Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant ’s most important lesson in his career. Something that Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels never had to worry about. The reason: his mom, Regina Jackson.

The Ravens expect Lamar Jackson to play Thursday night, and the practice report indicates that. The team estimates him as a full participant on Monday. Jackson has missed the past three games with a hamstring injury.
