Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (elbow) could play Week 5

Oct 06, 2026

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels practiced last week and if he has a good week he'll be on track to play in Week 5.

Related players: Marcus Mariota, Athan Kaliakmanis

Fantasy Impact:

Mariota is going to miss time with the MCL sprain, Garafolo said, which looks like it will clear the way for Daniels to start in Week 5. The Commanders get the Giants this week but things are certainly pointing the direction that he's going to get the start, which is a pretty quick recovery time given the injury. Keep an eye on his practice week ahead.

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (foot) day to day

RT Joe Alt (neck), WR Ladd McConkey (foot) and Donte Jackson (hamstring) are day to day.

Fantasy Impact:

McConkey had to leave Week 3's game with the foot injury, so owners are again risking another zero if things don't improve heading into Week 4. McConkey was limited on last Wednesday, didn't practice last Thursday and then returned for a limited Friday practice. McConkey saw two targets before not returning. Owners will need to see much more improvement in his practice time this week.

Seahawks opt to not sign RB Joe Mixon

Joe Mixon’s return to the NFL is back on hold.

The veteran running back worked out for the Seahawks and head coach Mike Macdonald said on Monday that the team was “going through the process” of signing him to their practice squad. They have reportedly changed course before the process reached the finish line, however.

Fantasy Impact:

There is no word on the specific reason why the Seahawks opted out. He may have just failed his physical. Mixon missed all of last season with a foot injury. The story said there is also word they will sign Henry off of the Commanders’ practice squad, but the deal has not been officially announced. They did sign Jones off their own practice squad.

No setbacks for 49ers WR Mike Evans (ribs)

No setbacks for Mike Evans, and Shanahan believes "he'll be a little better next week" against the Seahawks with his ribs healing.

Fantasy Impact:

Evans played 59.1% of snaps against the Broncos and had eight targets, catching five passes for 76 yards. All in all, not a terrible fantasy performance. While it sounds like the team expects Evans' rib issue to improve week to week, it's a tough matchup against the Seahawks in Week 5.
