Titans' A.J. Brown reacts to Marcus Mariota deal with Raiders

March 17, 2020 by Titans Wire Leave a Comment

Marcus Mariota has reportedly agreed to terms on a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders, and so ends his tenure with the Tennessee Titans.

Once he learned of the news, Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown, who played with Mariota for the first six games of the 2019 season, had high praise for the former No. 2 overall pick.

Ayeee !!!! Love you brother . Best Leader I ever been around! 💙 https://t.co/NJvlT4OWT5

— AJ Brown (@Brown1arthur) March 17, 2020

Brown totaled one of his five 100-yard receiving games last season with Mariota under center, which came during the Week 1 win against the Cleveland Browns.

Of course, Mariota was eventually replaced with Ryan Tannehill in Week 7, and that’s when Brown really took off.

Mariota leaving is bittersweet. While he has become a fan-favorite in Nashville for many reasons, clearly things didn’t work out for him with the Titans and it’s time for the Oregon product to get a change of scenery.

There’s no doubt that Mariota’s former teammates and fans of the team will be rooting for him, as long as his success doesn’t negatively impact the Titans.
