What It Means:

Marcus Mariota is still having difficulties gripping the football, so Gabbert is the safest option at quarterback. He did beat the Houston Texans last week, which likely makes the decision to hand him the reins a much easier one.

Our models currently project Gabbert for 95.9 passing yards, 0.5 touchdowns, 0.7 interceptions, and 5.6 FanDuel points, although that's likely to change should news of him starting become official.
