Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota (Achilles) is currently battling Achilles tendinitis, but the veteran expects to be ready to go for Week 1. Mariota is entering his second season as the backup to Jayden Daniels in Washington. The 31-year-old is one of the most experienced backup quarterbacks in the NFL with 74 career starts under his belt, although just 13 of those have come in the past five seasons. If Daniels were to get injured, Mariota's rushing ability (2,156 career rushing yards) would give him some fantasy appeal.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is leading the team into their first divisional matchup with the Cleveland Browns in Week 2 after a devastating loss to the Buffalo Bills. Even though Jackson turned in a great performance, the team gave up 22 points in the fourth quarter to eventually lose by one. The Browns don't present nearly the same level of talent on offense, but they do have one of the more tantalizing defensive units. Last year, Jackson's second-worst completion percentage was against the Browns at 55.71% in two games. With that being said, he still amassed 506 yards and four touchdowns through the air with 109 yards on 17 carries. This is also his first home game of the year, which gives another reason for Jackson and company to be amped up for this matchup.
