Marcus Mariota Trying To Build Strength In Hand
6 years agoTennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) has been trying to build strength in his hand in practice this week while dealing with a nerve issue in his elbow. "They way they explained it to me, it’s like when you strum a guitar string,” Mariota said. “When that string settles down, that’s kind of similar to how my never is. My nerve has kind of been strummed and it’s going to take it’s time to settle down.” He wore a glove last Sunday to try and improve his grip. Mariota was active last weekend but Blaine Gabbert played the whole game. It's unclear if Mariota will be able to improve enough to actually play in Week 3, but he should be avoided if he does against a very strong Jaguars defense.
