Who Should I Start? Marcus Mariota or Mitch Trubisky

Monday, February 3, 6:50 PM

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Washington Commanders impending free-agent quarterback Marcus Mariota is very much on the Miami Dolphins' and Las Vegas Raiders' radar this offseason as they seek to add a proven, established No. 2 QB. The Dolphins are seeking insurance for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, whose history of head injuries are well-documented. In Vegas, the Raiders could look to reunite Mariota with new offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, who coached Mariota for two years at Oregon. The 31-year-old played well in limited action in 2024 with Washington, going 34-for-44 for 364 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions. He's started 74 games in the NFL and has a 90.1 career passer rating, 97 TDs and 55 interceptions after the Titans made him the second overall pick in 2015. If Miami can't sign Mariota, they could pivot to 37-year-old Andy Dalton.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Mitchell Trubisky completed 15 of 21 pass attempts for 101 yards and a touchdown in the team's 23-16 loss to the New England Patriots. He also rushed four times for 12 yards. The veteran's passing touchdown was a two-yard strike to running back Ray Davis. Starting quarterback Josh Allen played one snap to extend his consecutive starts streak. Then, Trubisky entered the game and played for about three quarters before third-stringer Mike White finished the action. The Bills had clinched the AFC's second seed before the game began and utilized the entire roster to keep their stars healthy.
