3 teams are on a backup quarterback this week
Buccaneers: Jalon Daniels (Baker Mayfield out (thumb)). Commanders: Marcus Mariota (Jayden Daniels out (elbow)). Bears: Tyson Bagent (Caleb Williams out (hamstring)).
A backup moves Elo through the quarterback adjustment, usually by 10 to 40 points, worth 2 to 6 points of win probability. The market usually prices the news within hours of the report, so the gap between Elo and the market on these games says how much of the change the model has caught up with.
Sources: ESPN's depth chart and injury report, applied every three hours. A quarterback listed questionable is still the expected starter until he is ruled out.
| Buccaneers | Jalon Daniels for Baker Mayfield |
| Commanders | Marcus Mariota for Jayden Daniels |
| Bears | Tyson Bagent for Caleb Williams |
