Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota is in position to light up the Houston Texans on Sunday. Only five other teams have conceded more fantasy points to passers this season.
Fantasy football, Week 4: Marcus Mariota, start or sit?
The Titans’ shot caller is set to make some Texas-sized plays in Week 4. We break down the fantasy implications.

Mariota is coming off of his best performance of the season in a Week 3 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He completed 20 passes for 225 yards and two touchdowns in the game.
Fantasy impact: In addition to putting together some solid passing numbers, Mariota has also rushed the ball out of the pocket 16 times this season. He’s always been mobile and that adds another dimension to his game.
Now that he’s a more seasoned pro, the Titans could turn out to be one of the surprises of the 2017 season. That’s good news for Mariota and pass catchers like Rishard Matthews and Delanie Walker.
Long term outlook aside, Mariota is a definite fantasy starter in Houston. The game should see its share of points up on the board.
Recommendation: Start
