Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said Mariota (elbow) practiced fully and without any setbacks Wednesday and is thus on track to start Sunday's game against the Texans, Travis Haney of The Athletic reports. "[Mariota] was able to get through and do everything," Vrabel said. "He looked OK. Barring any setbacks, Marcus is going to be good to go on Sunday."
Mariota was removed from the season-opening loss to Miami in the third quarter after he lost feeling in some of his fingers and threw a pair of interceptions. His injured throwing elbow must be healing quickly, as it sounds like he didn't have any limitations during Wednesday's session. Blaine Gabbert would get the Week 2 start if Mariota experiences any setbacks prior to the weekend.
