Seattle visits Washington on Sunday seeking a 3-0 start; the 0-2 Commanders will turn to Marcus Mariota after Jayden Daniels injured his elbow against Dallas. The preview highlights containing Mariota’s mobility and avoiding mistakes as priorities for the Seahawks.
Seattle has allowed 17 points through two games. Mariota completed 11 of 16 passes for 111 yards after replacing Daniels against Dallas; the preview says containing his ability to escape pressure and extend plays will be a key defensive task.
Seattle has rushed for 259 yards at 4.2 yards per carry through two games; Philadelphia ran for 136 yards at 5.4 per carry against Washington in Week 1. Jaxon Smith-Njigba has 17 catches for 277 yards and four touchdowns in two games. The preview points to Rashid Shaheed and Tory Horton as options if Washington focuses on Smith-Njigba; Horton had four catches, 48 yards and two touchdowns against Washington last season.
