Marcus Mariota

WSHQB • #18

Marcus Mariota (pectoral) has been ruled out for Week 1 against the Buccaneers.

Mariota has a strained pectoral, and the 30-year-old signal-caller won’t be available for the opener against the Bucs. That means Jeff Driskel will operate as the backup QB to Jalen Daniels to begin the year.
