The Washington Commanders are a long way from the nation's capital this week.
They're preparing to play their Week 11 game in Madrid, Spain against the Miami Dolphins.
They'll have to do it with Marcus Mariota at quarterback, though.
Is Jayden Daniels playing this week?
No, Jayden Daniels is not playing in Week 11 against the Dolphins.
The Commanders' second-year QB has already been ruled out after dislocating his left elbow in Week 9.
Washington has not placed Daniels on Injured Reserve, which comes with a mandatory four-game absence, at minimum.
After Sunday, the Commanders have their bye, so Daniels will get a built-in off week.

When is Jayden Daniels coming back?
The Commanders have already said they'd evaluate Daniels again after their Week 12 bye.
He missed Week 10 and will miss Week 11 with his injury.
"It's a good deal with no surgery," Commanders coach Dan Quinn said on Nov. 7. "Obviously, that makes a big difference when you have an injury not to go down that road."
The lack of surgery leaves the door open for Daniels. But the Commanders are also 3-7, so if there's nothing to play for by the time Daniels is healthy, he may not return this season after all.
