As Washington heads into their Week 5 game against the Cleveland Browns, the focus will be on whether Daniels can continue his hot start against a defense that has allowed 123.3 rushing yards per game.

With the Browns looking to bounce back, it will be a test for Daniels and the Commanders as they aim to stay atop the NFC East. Meanwhile, Malik Nabers is questionable for the New York Giants' week five matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.
