After their 29-21 victory over the New York Giants, Washington Commanders‘ head coach, Dan Quinn, made a tough call for wide receiver Noah Brown. The 29-year-old went off the field at MetLife Stadium with a back injury in the first quarter but was ruled out with a rib injury. Addressing the health concern, Quin has placed Brown on the reserve/injured list, in turn shutting the wide receiver down for the remainder of the season.

The development was confirmed by the Washington Commanders as they released their roster update on the team website.

Addressing this news, Noah Brown shared an emotional note on social media reflecting on the season he has had with the Commanders.

“Sometimes you can’t make sense of everything God throws at you in life,” Brown wrote on Instagram. “You do the best you can in all the departments you can control, and God still says, ‘not yet. It’s easy to get discouraged, angry, sad, mad, feel sorry for yourself, all of the emotions. And I do feel every single one of those emotions. But when I look at my life and all the times God showed up for me when I thought I was down and out, it’s impossible to sit in those emotions. No matter how long the storm, IT WILL pass, and God’s glory will shine through me. BELIEVE THAT 🫡.”

Unfortunately, the 2025-26 season hasn’t been the best for Noah Brown as he suffered a groin injury in Week 2, and was activated for the Week 14 game against the Vikings. Hence, the 29-year-old has only played four games this year and has caught five passes for 83 yards.

However, for the Commanders, Brown isn’t the only major offensive weapon that has been shut down for the season, as head coach Dan Quinn also issued an update on QB1 Jayden Daniels, who has dealt with a few major injuries this season.

The Washington Commanders have decided to shut down star quarterback Jayden Daniels for the rest of the season. Daniels has also had a challenging 2025-26 campaign and has missed six games with multiple injuries, including a dislocated elbow against the Detroit Lions in November.

Jayden returned to the lineup against the Minnesota Vikings, but exited in the third quarter after falling on his elbow and being pushed to the ground following an interception.

“We’re going to sit him out for the final three games,” head coach Dan Quinn, as reported by WUSA9. He added that the decision was “part medical, part team, as of today, he wasn’t all the way cleared to play…so we believe this decision allows him to take advantage of the next few weeks in a different way.”

Veteran Marcus Mariota will start the final three games for Washington and has already proven his worth, as he has started every game for Washington in Daniels’ absence. This also includes Washington’s 29-21 win over the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium on Sunday.

The 10-year veteran has started 74 games so far and hopes to give the Commanders a strong finish to what has transpired into a challenging season as they sit third in the NFC East with a 4-10 record.
