NASHVILLE, Tenn. —Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota is 10 starts into his NFL career, and while he maybe hasn't been a perfect 10, there's no denying he's been pretty darn good.
But how does Mariota's start compare to previous first-round picks by the organization at the quarterback position? Here's a look at Mariota's first 10 games as a starter compared to the first 10 starts for quarterbacks Steve McNair, Vince Young and Jake Locker.
Keep in mind McNair took over as a full-time starter in his third NFL season after starting six games in his first two seasons. Young played in the first two games in his rookie season before taking over as the starter in Week 3 of the 2006 season, while Locker played in five games as a rookie in 2011 before starting his first game in 2012.
Reminder: Mariota missed two games this season with a knee injury.
