Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith says that QB Marcus Mariota is getting his knee checked out and is likely headed to injured reserve.
Fantasy Impact: Mariota started all 13 games for the Falcons, playing every snap. Mariota was producing QB2-level output in fantasy and had 2,219 yards in the air and a career-high 438 yards on the ground with 19 total touchdowns and nine interceptions. With Mariota headed to IR, rookie QB Desmond Ridder is the starter going forward. The Falcons will likely remain a run-heavy offense to close the season as they push for a playoff berth.
