Commanders | Josh Johnson starting Thursday Wed Dec 24, 12:22 PM
Washington Commanders QB Josh Johnson will start against the Dallas Cowboys Thursday, Dec. 25, according to head coach Dan Quinn.
| Footballguys view: Johnson, a fifth-round pick of the Buccaneers back in 2008, has bounced around to over a dozen NFL teams during his career. He's a trusted backup with rushing ability, but with Johnson starting it does downgrade the Washington passing game. Adjust expectations for guys like Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel accordingly. |

Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota (hand, quadriceps) hasn't been ruled out for the Week 17 game Thursday, Dec. 25.
| Footballguys view: Mariota has stitches in his throwing hand, while also dealing with a quad injury, so his status on a short week was very doubtful.

Commanders | Jeff Driskel picked up by Commanders Mon Dec 22, 12:02 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jeff Driskel was signed off the practice squad by the Washington Commanders Monday, Dec. 22.
| Footballguys view: On Saturday, Marcus Mariota, filling in for Jayden Daniels, was forced out early against the Eagles. Mariota is considered day-to-day, head coach Dan Quinn said Sunday, adding that Mariota is nursing a quadriceps injury, in addition to a hand ailment. The Commanders play on Christmas Day against the Cowboys, so we should consider Mariota questionable at best. That leaves the team with Josh Johnson as the only healthy body at the position. Driskel will add to that. |

Commanders | Marcus Mariota listed as day to day Sun Dec 21, 03:35 PM
Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota (quadriceps, hand) is considered day-to-day, head coach Dan Quinn said Sunday, Dec. 21. Quinn said Mariota is nursing a quadriceps injury, in addition to a hand ailment.
| Footballguys view: The Commanders play on Christmas day against the Cowboys, so we should consider Mariota questionable at best. Even with the very attractive Cowboys matchup, Mariota isn't an automatic play in 2QB/Superflex if active because of these injuries. Josh Johnson would start if Mariota can't go and be on the upside desperation play list for 2QB/Superflex leagues. |
