Career Of Marcus Mariota
Mariota attended an Oregon football camp in the summer of 2010, which allowed Mark Helfrich, Oregon’s then offensive coordinator, to be one of the first recruiters to discover Mariota.
After the camp, Helfrich visited Mariota in Hawaii to watch the somewhat unrecognized quarterback practice going into his senior season.
Helfrich called Chip Kelly during the visit and they made the decision to immediately offer Mariota a scholarship, despite never starting a varsity game.
After his senior season, he was rated the No. 2 recruiting prospect in the state of Hawaii and No. 12 dual-threat quarterback in the nation by Rivals.com.
He was recruited by the Oregon Ducks, Hawaii, Memphis, Utah, Oregon State, Washington, Arizona, Notre Dame, UCLA, and USC but was only offered a scholarship by Memphis and Oregon.
On July 28, 2022, Mariota was named the Falcons’ starting quarterback after engaging in an open competition for the starting quarterback job with rookie Desmond Ridder during the offseason.
Mariota threw for 215 yards, rushed for 72 yards and a rushing touchdown in the Falcons season opener, in a 27–26 loss to rival New Orleans Saints.
In Week 8 against the Carolina Panthers, Mariota passed 20 completions of 28 attempts for 253 yards with three touchdown passes and two interceptions in 37-34 win.
