Marcus Mariota Fantasy Stats

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota has played great while filling in for an injured Jayden Daniels (elbow). Mariota and the Commanders nearly pulled off the upset against the Denver Broncos in Week 13, with Mariota completing 28 of 50 passes for 294 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception while adding 10 carries for 55 yards on the ground. It was a valiant effort against one of the top defenses in the league that continued a trend of the 32-year-old signal-caller playing well. Daniels reportedly has a chance to return in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings, but he has not yet been cleared for contact. More will be known about Daniels' status in practice this week, but if he needs more time, Mariota would be in line to make his seventh start of the season and would profile as a strong streaming option again versus the Vikings.

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota completed 28 of 50 passes for 294 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception while adding 10 carries for 55 yards in a 27-26 overtime loss to the Denver Broncos. Mariota attempted a career-high 50 passes as Washington ran 85 total plays in the game and played well for the most part. The veteran connected with Treylon Burks for a five-yard touchdown on an unbelievable one-handed catch in the third quarter, then found Terry McLaurin for a three-yard touchdown in overtime to bring Washington within one point of the Broncos, but they ultimately failed the two-point conversion to win the game. Still, it was an encouraging outing for Mariota and the Washington offense against an elite Denver defense. Mariota could make another start next week against the Minnesota Vikings if Jayden Daniels (elbow) is unable to return.

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota will make his third consecutive start in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos with Jayden Daniels (elbow) ruled out. Daniels returned as a limited participant in practice this week, but hasn't been cleared for contact yet and will need at least another week. Mariota has performed well this season with Daniels sidelined, completing 65.7% of his passes for 1,065 yards, seven touchdowns, and five interceptions while adding 27 carries for 193 yards and another score as a runner in seven games (five starts). The 32-year-old veteran will have No. 1 wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) back from his second multi-game absence on Sunday Night Football against an elite Denver Broncos defense that has allowed the second fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. Mariota profiles as a mid-range QB2 option for Week 13.

With Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) missing time due to both knee and elbow injuries, backup QB Marcus Mariota has gotten extended playing time in 2025. Across seven games (five starts) this season, the 32-year-old has completed 65.7% of his pass attempts for 1,065 yards, seven touchdowns, and five interceptions. Mariota also brings some juice with his legs, rushing for 193 yards and a touchdown on 27 attempts. However, Daniels was able to avoid surgery on his dislocated left elbow, which could allow him to return to the field shortly after the Commanders' Week 12 bye. At the same time, Washington is out of the playoff mix with a 3-8 record, so the team could choose to shut Daniels down and play for 2026. Still, the Commanders will face one of the NFL's best defenses in the Denver Broncos in Week 13. Mariota does not profile as a starting fantasy QB option in Week 13, which may be his last chance to start before Daniels returns.

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota finished Sunday with 213 yards passing, 49 yards rushing, one touchdown pass, and an interception in an overtime loss against Miami. Filling in for starter Jayden Daniels (elbow), the veteran was solid if unspectacular by completing 20 of 30 passing attempts and breaking a 44-yard run that accounted for most of his rushing yardage. Mariota briefly departed the game to be checked for a concussion, but re-entered and finished the game. Unfortunately for Washington, his lone pick was a big one: Miami intercepted him on the first play of overtime and was able to kick a short field goal to clinch victory. From a fantasy perspective, Mariota should maintain Superflex value as long as Daniels is hurt.

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota has value as a potential streamer going up against the Miami Dolphins in Madrid, Spain, in Week 11. Mariota was solid on low passing volume in Washington's Week 10 loss to the Lions, completing 16 of 22 passes for 213 yards and two touchdowns while adding five rushes for 22 yards on the ground. The veteran finished as QB12 for the week with 18.7 fantasy points and should be in line for another productive game against a leaky Miami defense. Mariota will be without most of Washington's expected core of wide receivers, including Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Luke McCaffrey (shoulder), and the recently signed Treylon Burks (finger) has also been ruled out. The 32-year-old Mariota is a viable streamer in a matchup that could wind up being a shootout with how poor Washington's defense has been lately.

Washington Commanders veteran quarterback Marcus Mariota matched his season high with 213 passing yards on 16-for-22 passing with two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 44-22 blowout loss to the visiting Detroit Lions in Week 10. Mariota also carried the ball five times for 22 rushing yards and was sacked twice for a loss of 18 yards. The 32-year-old's numbers don't really jump off the page, but all in all, it wasn't a bad performance in his fourth start of the year. It's unclear exactly how long Jayden Daniels (elbow) will be out following a gruesome dislocated left elbow in Week 9, but Mariota should see at least a few more starts, including a plus matchup in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins. He has completed 65.5% of his 110 pass attempts for 852 yards, six touchdowns, and four interceptions in his six games played (four starts) in 2025. Mariota should continue to be a low-upside QB2 streamer in superflex leagues for however long Daniels remains sidelined.

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota is set to make his fourth start of the season with starting quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) out for an extended period of time. Mariota has been solid in his first three starts, completing 66.7% of his passes for 576 yards with four touchdowns and three interceptions to go with 102 rushing yards and a touchdown on 16 carries. It's ideal that Washington's offense doesn't have to change much with Mariota in for Daniels, as both quarterbacks offer similar dual-threat abilities, although the veteran is a much less dynamic version. The 32-year-old gets a solid matchup in Week 10 against a Detroit Lions defense that has allowed the 11th most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. Mariota is ranked as RotoBaller's QB15 for Week 10.

With Jayden Daniels (elbow) expected to miss time following a gruesome Week 9 injury, Marcus Mariota is set to take over as the Washington Commanders' starting quarterback for the foreseeable future. In three starts this season, the veteran has completed 52 of 78 passes (66.7%) for 576 yards, throwing four touchdowns and three interceptions, while adding 102 rushing yards and a touchdown on 16 carries. Mariota draws a favorable Week 10 matchup against the Detroit Lions, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season. With his dual-threat ability and favorable matchup, Mariota profiles as a low-end QB2 for Week 10, and potentially beyond if Daniels remains sidelined.

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota is expected to be the Commanders' starting QB for the next several weeks following the elbow injury suffered by Jayden Daniels on Sunday night. Daniels is without a timetable to return, but could still be back this season. He'll be sidelined for a while, though, which will allow Mariota to return to the starting role in Washington. He has started three games this season, most recently against the Chiefs in Week 8. He threw for 213 yards and a touchdown in that game and added 28 yards on eight carries. He also threw an interception, though, and has four picks to go with his four passing scores on the season. He does bring some rushing potential with at least 20 rushing yards each game, but he doesn't offer nearly the ceiling as a dynamic playmaker that Daniels brings. If you need QB help from the waiver wire in two-quarterback leagues, Mariota can be an option, but the veteran backup has a tough matchup against the Lions this week before a more favorable Week 11 matchup against the Dolphins going into the team's Week 12 bye.
