Fantasy Football: Tennessee Titans QB Mariota questionable

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota, who has been limited in practice all week with a left hamstring strain, is listed as questionable for Sunday's road game against the Miami Dolphins.

Titans coach Mike Mularkey said Mariota was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report and will be a game-time decision.

Mariota did not start the second half of last Sunday's game against the Houston Texans with the hamstring injury.

"If I'm able to move around, hand the ball off and able to drop back, I'll definitely play," Mariota said. "My first and foremost goal is to get healthy. If I am able to play, I'd love to play."

If Mariota can't go, the starting duties will fall to Matt Cassel, who struggled in the second half of Sunday's 57-14 loss at Houston with two interceptions (including a pick-six) and a lost fumble on a strip-sack.

Cassel took first-team reps in practice on Friday. Newly signed veteran Brandon Weeden would be active as Cassel's backup if Mariota is declared inactive.

Cassel said earlier this week he believes that knowing there is a real possibility of starting helps him in his mental preparation.

"I think it helps mentally obviously anytime as a quarterback when you have a better understanding that there's a possibility you might play," Cassel said. "It might be a little bit easier to prepare mentally. It's my job to be prepared week in and week out to be prepared and be accountable. But you never know when you're going to go into a game, and it's always a surprise when you do."

Titans wide receiver Corey Davis and safety Johnathan Cyprien, who are both sidelined by hamstring injuries, were ruled out for Sunday.
