Titans' Marcus Mariota Expected to Miss Sunday's Game

The Tennessee Titans are expected to go with veteran Matt Cassel Sunday against the Miami Dolphins with Marcus Mariota banged up due to a hamstring injury. 

It's a major downgrade under center for Tennessee after Cassel threw two interceptions on 10 attempts in replacing Mariota during a 57-14 whitewashing against the Houston Texans last week. 

With Mariota sidelined, neither Rishard Matthews nor Delanie Walker hold the same fantasy relevance as they would if he were under center.

Instead, Derrick Henry (178 yards, 4.6 average) and DeMarco Murray (215 yards, 5.1 average) should see uptick in values against a Dolphins defense that ranks in the bottom half of the NFL against fantasy running backs on the season.
