Daniels has missed the last two games after suffering a knee sprain in Week 2 against the Green Bay Packers. The Commanders weren't quite satisfied with his mobility despite the signal-caller's limited return to practice, and he stayed at home while his teammates went to Atlanta. Considering how competitive Daniels is, this was probably an interesting conversation. Marcus Mariota is a capable understudy, but he lacks the creativity and dynamism that his teammate brings to the position under center.
