Mariota says he feels much better, hopes he can play

Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota said he feels a lot better than a week ago. Whether he plays Monday night against the Indianapolis Colts remains to be seen and will depend on how much Mariota can move around.

Mariota did not play last week in a 1610 loss to Miami because of a strained left hamstring.

The Titans (2-3) practiced Wednesday taking advantage of an extra day, and Mariota says he was able to participate in a good amount of the session. But Mariota says he wasn’t able to do everything.

Coach Mike Mularkey said he’s hoping Mariota can play and that the quarterback doing more Wednesday than he did last week was a good sign.
