Mariota left the game during Washington's first offensive possession and went to the sideline medical tent. Mariota went to the locker room a short time later.
Mariota's departure came after a play that saw him hand the ball off to Kaytron Allen, but he took a hit while delivering a pass on the previous play. Reports from the game say Mariota appeared to be gesturing to his knee.
