Daily News | Marcus Mariota’s acclimation to the Eagles’ playbook starts with Jalen Hurts
Working in his eighth offensive system in his ninth NFL season, the journeyman has shown a couple of flashes with his new team. In other instances, Mariota has appeared out of sync with his pass catchers — he’s the only quarterback to throw multiple interceptions over the first week and a half of training camp.
Mariota, who signed a one-year deal worth $5 million, has played in 87 career games across eight seasons with the Titans, Raiders, and Falcons. He has recorded 15,656 passing yards with 92 touchdowns, 54 interceptions, and has completed 62.6% of his passes. Mariota also has been a formidable threat in the run game with 2,012 career rushing yards and 17 touchdowns. This summer alone, Mariota has taken off from the pocket more than a handful of times each practice.
In an effort to expedite the learning curve under coach Nick Sirianni, new offensive coordinator Brian Johnson, and position coach Alex Tanney, Mariota enjoys drawing out each play before and after practice. Through five training camp sessions, Mariota has worked exclusively with the second-team offense.
Despite being separated by more than five years in age, Hurts, who turns 25 on Monday, and Mariota, 30 in October, have quickly developed an early rapport.
