NFL Injury Updates: QB Choices & Injuries for Key Players

Segment Spotlight: Quick Hits From Game Time Decisions

Quarterback Updates and Injury Concerns

In the ongoing quarterback situation for Washington, Jaden Daniels is emerging as the most likely starter over Marcus Mariota. Mariota, dealing with an MCL sprain, did not return in the previous game, leading to uncertainty about his immediate playing future. Similarly, Baker Mayfield, despite a thumb dislocation and subsequent stitches, might still make a play for the upcoming Thursday game, though it's considered a long shot. Lamar Jackson's status is also up in the air, pending MRI results. Meanwhile, Caleb Williams has been effectively ruled out for the next game.

Receivers and Injury Updates

DJ Moore of the Buffalo Bills has reaggravated his AC joint sprain, raising concerns about his availability. However, indications are that his injury is not long term, and it's unlikely that the Bills will pursue other wide receivers, such as entering the Tyreek Hill sweepstakes, as a result. In another concerning update, Josh Allen played the last game with visible discomfort tied to a left knee injury, affecting his overall mobility and performance in the game.
