The Washington Commanders (5-2) host the Chicago Bears (4-2) in Week 8 NFC action from Northwest Stadium. It’s the first time rookie quarterbacks Jayden Daniels (Commanders) and Caleb Williams (Bears) will face off. However, the biggest question ahead of Sunday is whether Daniels will play. He was listed as questionable on Friday’s final injury report after suffering a rib injury in last week’s win over Carolina.
If Daniels can’t go, veteran Marcus Mariota will get the nod for the Commanders. Mariota relieved Daniels last week and played well. Chicago’s defense presents a more difficult challenge than Carolina, though.
To get to know this week’s opponent better, Commanders Wire spoke with Bears Wire managing editor Alyssa Barbieri to learn all about the 2024 Chicago Bears.
