Commanders' Marcus Mariota: Activated off injured reserve

Mariota (chest) was activated off injured reserve Saturday but remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns.

It would seem counterintuitive to activate a player off injured reserve and then not play him, especially well within the 21-day practice window, so it seems likely the veteran quarterback is set to operate as the backup come Sunday. Mariota will likely push out Jeff Driskel from the backup spot as a result.
