Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota is a good guy. How good? Well, he decided to take the high road after a fan got a dumb tattoo of the quarterback on his arm. How dumb? Well, the tat includes “2018 NFL MVP” and the word “Mariota” with a goat on it.
It’s bad. Really, really bad.

Though, the man behind the tattoo, Mitch Firkins, seems to be pretty excited about his new body art. It’s also somewhat surprising that Mariota took time out of his offseason to respond to the ink in the most positive of ways.

“I love the tattoo and definitely would love to see you again and thank you for your support,” Mariota said. “
Good guy alert there.
As it relates to Firkins, he also has a 2017 AFC South champions tattoo on his arm. We don’t have to be geniuses to figure out how that worked out for him.
