What happened: RGIII publicly defended Jayden Daniels on Thursday, rejecting suggestions that the quarterback lacks support in Washington. He characterized claims of teammate indifference as 'false narratives' designed to generate clicks.

Why it matters: The statement addresses social media commentary regarding the team's reaction when Daniels sustained a dislocated elbow. The quarterback has been ruled out for Week 3 and is consulting a specialist about the injury.

What to watch: Marcus Mariota will start at quarterback against the Seattle Seahawks.
