Jack David Marriott (born 9 September 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for EFL League One club Wrexham.
[5] At the time recruitment officer Malcolm Moore said, "He's a striker, tough, quick, aggressive and has a horrible knack of scoring goals.
"[5] Impressive performances for the under-18s over his two-year scholarship led to Marriott signing a one-year professional contract at Portman Road in February 2013.
[6] Marriott was included in the squad for the final two matches of 2012–13 and made his professional debut as a 61st-minute substitute for Frank Nouble in a 2–0 defeat away to Burnley on 4 May.
[9] He made his Woking debut in a 3–0 win at home to Dartford on 12 November, scoring his first professional goal as he picked up the man-of-the-match award.
[20] Marriott then joined Woking on loan for a third spell on 25 September,[21] scoring on his return two days later in a 3–2 defeat at home to Kidderminster Harriers.
[28] Marriott scored his first goals for Luton in the following match, a 3–1 win at home to newly promoted Championship club Bristol City in the League Cup first round.
[31] He was shown a red card for making a gesture to the Leyton Orient fans in Luton's 2–1 win in the Football League Trophy on 1 September.
"[32] Marriott scored a brace in consecutive substitute appearances against AFC Wimbledon and Hartlepool United, which resulted in two wins in a week to increase his tally for the season to six goals.
[37] His fourth brace of 2015–16 in a 4–1 win at home to Exeter City on 7 May saw him finish the season as Luton's top scorer with 16 goals in 44 appearances.
[39] Marriott made his first appearance of 2016–17 in the starting lineup away to Plymouth Argyle on the opening day of the season, in which he scored Luton's second goal in a 3–0 victory.
[41][42] However, he entered a goalless drought of 10 matches which saw him dropped from the first-team in November against Morecambe, Portsmouth and Exeter City in favour of fellow striker Isaac Vassell.
[47][48] He was introduced as a 74th-minute substitute in the first leg of the play-off semi-final defeat to Blackpool, losing 6–5 on aggregate,[49][50] and finished the season with 47 appearances and 12 goals.
[61] On 16 October 2020, Derby took the opportunity to extend Marriott's contract until the summer of 2022, before allowing him to join Sheffield Wednesday on a season-long loan.
