Mariota Out vs. Texans, Status for Season Finale TBD
Mariota will not play in the home finale Sunday against Houston, but has a “chance” to return for the regular season finale January 3 at Indianapolis, the coach said, based on continued evaluations.

The Titans’ rookie quarterback sprained the medial collateral ligament in his right knee during a 33-16 loss to New England on Sunday, interim coach Mike Mularkey said Monday. In 12 games, Mariota threw for over 2,800 yards with a 62% completion percentage, 19 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions.
Brady, saying he felt “fine” after being sick Friday and questionable for the game, hit tight end Rob Gronkowski and running back James White (seven catches, 71 yards and a 70-yarder called back) with his 34th and 35th touchdown passes of the season – his fourth 35-touchdown season, tying him with Peyton Manning for the all-time record. And I try to be the best example I can be, not only for our team or for our community that we live in, that I’ve lived in for 16 years, but for my own kids, too. He said it was his understanding that the players and Mularkey decided on the role and the team wanted to add an offensive captain after running back Dexter McCluster was lost for the year with a wrist injury suffered last week in NY against the Jets. “You’re just trying to do what you can to be productive”, a positive Brady said after the victory (Watch post-game press conference below).
THWARTED COMEBACKS: Zach Mettenberger replaced Mariota and completed 20 of 28 passes for 242 yards, two touchdowns – both to Delanie Walker – and two interceptions.
He stood on the sideline wearing his helmet, did not return to the game. He also said that the Titans wouldn’t play him if there “any issues” regarding the knee. However, things quickly got worse when Mariota was taken out of the game with a knee injury.
The Titans have shut down their rookie quarterback for the year. Honestly, I don’t wake up many mornings and, ‘Woe is me.’ I look around and just try to have empathy for people that are in other obviously challenging situations. He hasn’t thrown a pass since 2011.
Bengals 24, 49ers 14: Jeremy Hill ran for a pair of 1-yard touchdowns to back AJ McCarron’s first career start, and the Bengals clinched a fifth straight postseason berth. But the veteran could not finish the game, leaving in the third after reinjuring the knee and playing just half the snaps…. “Getting as much game experience (as we can)”.
He has emerged as a go-to guy in a Patriots’ offense that continues to score points in bunches, no matter who’s in the lineup.
The Titans (3-11) have the inside track for the first overall pick in the draft.
Adrian Peterson missed some time because of an injury to his left ankle, but finished with 63 yards to maintain his National Football League rushing lead.

The lack of continuity is never a good thing for a quarterback, but Mariota has proven he possesses the smarts, ability and motivation to adjust and improve.
