The Redskins plan to host Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota for a pre-draft visit, a person with knowledge of the situation confirmed.

Despite reiterating this week that Robert Griffin III will enter the offseason program as the starter later this spring, coach Jay Gruden and general manager Scot McCloughan will continue to evaluate Mariota, who won the Heisman Trophy this past season, along with the other top draft prospects.

Washington holds the fifth overall pick in the draft, which runs from April 30-May 2.
