00:00Here is Washington Commander Head Coach Dan Quinn.

00:07Of course, Daniel's getting hurt on Sunday in that game against Carolina with the ribs.

00:12Quinn says it is what it is.

00:14Might take some time.

00:15Week to week.

00:16Might take a week.

00:17Might take five.

00:18Who knows?

00:19The status for Jaden, we'll put down as week to week.

00:21As you guys know, it's a rib injury.

00:23And we'll take him through all the steps at practice and assess how he's doing and keep

00:28working it through that.

00:29We're hopeful he can play, but we'll also make sure to take every precautionary step

00:36and do it smartly for the player and the man.

00:40And so we want to make sure I give you all the updates that I had, and so it's not going

00:45to be something that's going to knock him out for a long term.

00:48And so, like I said, we're going to list it as week to week.

00:51And like I said, hopefully we'll play this week and we'll take it every day of it all

00:55the way through.

00:56He's not playing this week.

00:58You can kind of already see the tea leaves.

01:00He did not practice today on Wednesday.

01:03And Mariota is the one who talked to the reporters.

01:06Usually the quarterback, starting quarterback, talks to the reporters on Wednesday.

01:09He took all the first team reps.

01:11So they're saying it without saying it they are.

01:14It's going to be Mariota on Sunday against the Bears.

01:17Gee, what a shock.

01:19Here's the deal.

01:20They're going to lose to the Bears.

01:21With Mariota, they're going to kill him.

01:23That defense is going to kill him.

01:25They're going to eat him up.

01:26They're going to pick him off.

01:28And I wouldn't be surprised.

01:30I like a Bears prop defensive score.

01:34And I think Caleb Williams is going to take advantage of the fact that the quarterback

01:39that's better than him is not playing.

01:42So the Bears are good.

01:44Caleb's slinging it and they got a really good defense.

01:47And I never thought, as I said, that they were going to the Super Bowl.

01:51I wasn't buying all that shtick.

01:53I'm not buying it at all.

01:55But I will give you that they are a lot better than I thought they would be.
