NASHVILLE – The Tennessee Titans want to jump-start an offense that has just one touchdown over the past 10 quarters, so they’re turning to Ryan Tannehill as their starting quarterback and benching Marcus Mariota.
At least for Sunday.
“We’re trying to get a little spark, trying to evaluate what we’re doing and how we’re functioning as an offense,” coach Mike Vrabel said Wednesday.
Tannehill, who is in eighth NFL season and started 88 games for the Miami Dolphins before being traded this past offseason, will make his first start for the Titans as they host the Los Angeles Chargers in a matchup of 2-4 teams.
“I just felt like now was the time ,” Vrabel said.
