Raiders Close To A Deal With Marcus Mariota
5 years agoThe Las Vegas Raiders are getting close to a deal with free-agent quarterback Marcus Mariota, according to sources. General manager Mike Mayock had Mariota as his top-ranked quarterback heading into the 2015 draft. The former Oregon star was benched in 2019 in favor of Ryan Tannehill, who led the club to an AFC Championship appearance. He'd likely be a backup to Derek Carr if he signs with the Raiders, but the organization is growing tired of Carr despite the fact that he had one of his best seasons in 2019. Mariota has fallen completely off the fantasy radar.
