Josh Johnson Becomes Sole QB Hope for Commanders
21 Dec
Summary
- Mariota injured his hand and was evaluated for a concussion.
- Johnson, 39, is the only available quarterback for the Commanders.
- Daniels is out for the season; Hartman is on the practice squad.
Washington's quarterback depth was severely tested as Marcus Mariota left the game against the Philadelphia Eagles in the third quarter with a hand injury. He also underwent evaluation for a concussion but was cleared, remaining questionable to return due to the hand issue.
This injury leaves the Commanders in a precarious position. Josh Johnson, a veteran in his 11th season and playing for his 14th NFL team, is now the sole quarterback available. This is the most teams an NFL player has ever been on.
Further complicating matters, Jayden Daniels has been ruled inactive for the final three games of the season. Additionally, Sam Hartman, currently on the practice squad, is ineligible to serve as the designated emergency third quarterback, highlighting the team's limited options.
