Marcus Mariota, Tennessee Titans Brass At A Crossroads

Marcus Mariota is entering his option year with Tennessee and Titans GM John Robinson recently had some strong words when talking about his Starting Quarterback, to stay away from taking the big hit, “Don’t take that hit. If you feel the pocket coming down on you and you take off running, and the ‘backer is coming off of coverage and he’s coming screaming at you, throw the ball away. It’s OK to punt, we’ll get another crack at it. That’s the main thing, it’s stressing to him to try as best as possible, like all quarterbacks do, to avoid getting hit.
