Athan Kaliakmanis Poised for Expanded Role Amid Injuries

With veteran quarterback Marcus Mariota suffering an MCL sprain during a loss to the Colts, rookie Athan Kaliakmanis may see increased playing time for the Washington Commanders in Week 5. Kaliakmanis completed 15-of-33 passes for 186 yards with a touchdown and an interception against Indianapolis after stepping in. The team also navigates injuries to Jayden Daniels, who suffered a dislocated left elbow previously.
