The Washington Commanders are experiencing a resurgence as they lead the NFC East with a 4-2 record, thanks in part to the impressive play of rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. In contrast, the Carolina Panthers are struggling at 1-5, with their first overall draft pick, Bryce Young, benched amid a dismal season.

This upcoming matchup at Northwest Stadium is crucial for both teams, as the Commanders look to solidify their position while the Panthers aim to turn their season around.
