Marcus Mariota Fantasy

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota looked sharp in limited action against the New England Patriots on Saturday, completing 6-of-9 passes for 63 yards and a touchdown strike to tight end Delanie Walker. Mariota capped off a solid week of camp with a convincing performance, leaving no room for speculation about a quarterback competition in Tennessee. Titans reporter Paul Kuharsky went as far as to say "There is no circumstance under which a healthy Marcus Mariota is not the Week One starter in Cleveland. Period." While Mariota's job is not in question, his ability to be a consistent fantasy option at a position filled with options is. Mariota is nothing more than a low-end QB2 option going into his fifth season.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota has been surrounded with doubt going into his make-or-break fifth season in the league. Despite recent claims that he may not be a lock to start at quarterback in Week 1, Mariota continues to outplay Ryan Tannehill in team drills. Although Mariota is expected by all credible accounts to be the team's Week 1 starter, he may not have as long of a leash anymore with a solid backup waiting at the helm. It may be wise to target Mariota at a discount in superflex dynasty formats with the current perception of his job security in the national media.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota played only one series in the team's preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles, going 4-for-8 for just 24 yards. While Mariota's performance was not necessarily inspiring for fantasy owners, he did look sharp on his lone drive and was hurt by a couple drops from receivers Taywan Taylor and Darius Jennings. The main concern for Mariota this preseason is to just escape without any injuries, something that has been a tall task for the young quarterback in the past.
