Overview
- Washington announced Saturday that Terry McLaurin (quad) and Deebo Samuel (heel) will play Monday night at Arrowhead Stadium.
- Starter Jayden Daniels has been ruled out with a right hamstring strain, so veteran Marcus Mariota will make his third start of the season.
- McLaurin returns after four missed games from a Week 3 quad injury, and Samuel is back after sitting out Week 7 in Dallas with a bruised heel.
- Through six games, Samuel leads the team with 34 receptions for 315 yards and three touchdowns, while McLaurin has 10 catches for 149 yards in three outings.
- It will be the first time since Week 3 that McLaurin and Samuel share the field, a reunion coaches say can influence coverages for a Washington offense that has recently struggled on third downs and in rushing efficiency.
