Brian Johnson has already taken his talents to Washington, and he’ll have a familiar name after Marcus Mariota signed a one-year, $6 million deal.

Mariota appeared in just three regular-season games as the Eagles’ backup quarterback this season, completing 15 of 23 passes for 164 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
All but three of Mariota’s passes came in Week 18.
He’ll join Sam Howell as the only two quarterbacks on the Washington roster, while new head coach Dan Quinn has the No. 3 overall pick in April’s NFL draft.
