There is hope and potential for a great rookie quarterback matchup on Sunday when the Washington Commanders play host to the Chicago Bears. The Bears will start No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams. The Commanders hope to start Jayden Daniels, the second overall choice. However, Daniels has a rib injury.

Jayden Daniels injury update
Jayden Daniels was injured in last week’s game with the Carolina Panthers. The Commanders rolled but Marcus Mariota had to come in to finish the rout.
“I want to play but it’s not my decision,” he said. “It feels better, but I’ve still got some time. I’ve still got some marks I need to hit so they feel comfortable putting me out there.”
How long has Jayden Daniels been out?
