The move comes after Marcus Mariota, backup to rookie Jayden Daniels, dressed for his first game of the season Sunday. He missed the first four weeks while recovering from groin and pectoral injuries.
The Commanders kept Jeff Driskel as their No. 3 quarterback and released Hartman. However, Hartman could still land on the team's practice squad.
Hartman, 25, signed with the Commanders as an undrafted free agent this spring after a productive college career at Wake Forest (2018-22) and Notre Dame (2023).
He threw for an ACC-high 38 touchdowns for Wake in 2022 before transferring to South Bend. In his lone season for the Fighting Irish, he completed 63.5 percent of his passes for 2,689 yards, 24 TDs and eight interceptions.
