Titans QB Marcus Mariota out vs Texans. (Jim Wyatt on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: This will be the second straight game that Mariota has missed. At the helm last week, Zach Mettenberger went 22-35 for 187 yards and 1 TD against the Falcons. The good news for the Titans backup QB – the Texans are giving up the third-most fantasy points to quarterbacks and have allowed 16 TDs on the season.
