Mariota exits preseason with apparent leg injury; critical backup QB status in jeopardy.

Mariota suffered an apparent non-contact leg injury in the preseason opener after just four plays, appearing to grab at his knee on a handoff to Kaytron Allen. He was able to walk off the field on his own but left for further evaluation. As Washington's established No. 2 quarterback behind Jayden Daniels with two developmental prospects behind him who are far from NFL-ready, Mariota is the last line of defense if something happens to Daniels; his health matters far more than the outcome of an August game. Head coach Dan Quinn had no update on Mariota when asked after the game.
