Commanders may play without McLaurin, Diggs as Daniels returns to practice

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels returned to practice on October 8, 2026, after missing two games due to a dislocated elbow. He is expected to play in Week 5 against the New York Giants. However, wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs missed practice due to hamstring injuries, putting their availability for the game in doubt. The Commanders, with a 1-3 record, are looking to rebound against a Giants team struggling with its own quarterback issues. The status of both receivers will be monitored leading up to Sunday.
