Fallout and Team Outlook
Mariota will be the team’s starting quarterback from now on, but he will lead a team in disarray.

They also saw injuries to cornerback Lattimore (ACL tear) and wide receiver Luke McCaffrey (collarbone fracture) on Sunday, and have a number of other starters on injured reserve. The Commanders are 3-6 on the season, and it would require a huge turnaround for the team to make the postseason.
