The\u00a0Washington Commanders<\/a>\u00a0have had a decent season so far in 2024, as 2024 second overall pick Jayden Daniels has led the team to a surprisingly competitive 7-5 record through 12 games, and there is still much more football to be played.<\/p>\n

Last week, the Commanders took on the struggling\u00a0Dallas Cowboys<\/a>\u00a0in a divisional matchup. The Cowboys were third in the NFC East heading into the anticipated game. However, the Commanders ultimately lost their third straight game.<\/p>\n

In the game, Daniels was clearly not the problem, as while the Cowboys put up 34 points on the Commanders\u2019 defense, Daniels was balling out. The rookie signal-caller put 275 passing yards while completing 65 percent of his passes for 2 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

Now, the Commanders have made a difficult decision, and many of their fans thought they should have done a while to attempt to get back in the win column this week against the Titans. The team has officially cut Emmanuel Forbes Jr.<\/p>\n
