Zach Mettenberger expected to start

Nerdy Football Analysis: Mariota has been bothered by a knee injury and didn’t practice this week. Zach Mettenberger’s start doesn’t necessarily mean the Titans offense will become a shell of itself. He’s been adequate in his limited time as starter including 345 yds and 2 TDs against the Eagles last season, but the upside for receivers Kendall Wright and TE Delanie Walker takes a slight hit.
