Marcus Mariota A Shaky Option In Week 2
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) was limited in Thursday's practice, leaving his status for the Week 2 matchup with Houston uncertain. Head coach Mike Vrabel has insisted that he is still optimistic that Mariota will be able to play on Sunday, but it is looking like it might be a game-time decision. Even if […]
Sam 6 years agoCorey Davis Sees 13 Targets In Week 1
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis saw a surprising 13 targets in the team's Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins. Unfortunately, Davis was only able to haul in six of the passes for 62 yards. Despite his inefficiency in the game, the volume Davis saw is very encouraging for his 2018 outlook. Davis was […]
Sam 6 years agoDerrick Henry A Non-Factor In Week 1 Loss
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry rushed only 10 times for 26 yards in the loss to the Miami Dolphins and was rarely on the field once they fell behind. Dion Lewis saw 10 more touches than Henry this game, but it is logical to assume that this trend was more game script dependent and […]
Sam 6 years agoDion Lewis Impressive In Loss To Dolphins
Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis was one of the lone bright spots on the offense in the loss to the Miami Dolphins. Lewis rushed 15 times for 72 yards and a touchdown. He also caught five passes for 35 yards on eight targets, second on the team behind Corey Davis. Lewis was clearly more […]

Tennessee Titans quarterback Blaine Gabbert came in following the injury to starter Marcus Mariota in Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins but struggled to get anything going, finishing 11 of 22 for 117 yards and an interception. While Mariota's status is questionable for the Week 2 matchup with the Houston Texans, Gabbert does not provide […]

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota was taken out of the game for an elbow injury in the team's loss to the Miami Dolphins. Mariota took a hard hit after a handoff and stated, "I just couldn't feel my fingers, couldn't feel my hand." Mariota did play two drives following the injury but was intercepted on […]
Sam 6 years agoDelanie Walker Likely Out For Season
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker suffered a dislocated ankle and associated fracture in Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins, according to Ian Rapoport. Walker was having a solid day prior to the injury, with four receptions for 52 yards on seven targets. Walker's absence will be a huge blow to the Titans offense this […]
Sam 6 years agoDelanie Walker A TE1 In Good Matchup
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker has been a pillar of consistency at the position over the last few years, and we should not expect that to change in 2018. Walker faces a Dolphins defense Week 1 that allowed the most points to tight ends in 2017. Expect quarterback Marcus Mariota to lean on the […]
Sam 6 years agoCorey Davis A Risky WR3 Option Versus Dolphins
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis was a training camp standout this summer, but he left the preseason without a single reception in over three quarters of action. While the Titans did not reveal much of their playbook, his lack of chemistry with quarterback Marcus Mariota on several occasions has provided reason for concern. Despite […]
Sam 6 years agoDion Lewis A Safe Flex Play Week 1
Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis is in play as a low-end RB2 Week 1 when the Titans travel to Miami to take on the Dolphins. The Dolphins allowed 19.6 fantasy points and 44 receiving yards to running backs in 2017, which should give Lewis a solid floor in PPR leagues. Mariota also showed a […]
Sam 6 years agoMarcus Mariota A Risky Week 1 Play
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota described his feelings towards the season opener against the Miami Dolphins in one word: "Excitement." Fantasy owners, however, should approach Mariota with slightly more caution. With the Titans traveling to Miami and having a first-time offensive coordinator calling plays, Mariota's expected production is somewhat of an unknown. Mariota does have […]
Sam 6 years agoDerrick Henry Ready To Make An Impact In Week 1
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry spent the majority of his first two seasons in the NFL sitting behind DeMarco Murray, but with Murray no longer with the team, Henry knows it is his time. Henry stated, "I am ready to go out there and make the impact any way I can." Henry is expected […]
Sam 6 years agoDerrick Henry Listed Ahead Of Dion Lewis On Depth Chart
Tennessee Titans running backs Derrick Henry and Dion Lewis have been described as 1A and 1B throughout much of the preseason, but Henry is listed as the starter going into the Week 1 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. This should be considered a formality until proven otherwise. Lewis is expected to handle more of the […]
Sam 6 years agoRishard Matthews Listed As Starter On Week 1 Depth Chart
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Rishard Matthews is listed as one of the two starting wide receivers on the Week 1 depth chart. Matthews, who returned to practice just last week, has been a favorite target of quarterback Marcus Mariota over the last few seasons. While the rise of Corey Davis throughout training camp does put […]
Sam 6 years agoAkrum Wadley Waived By Titans
The Tennessee Titans have waived rookie running back Akrum Wadley following a disappointing preseason. Wadley struggled in both pass protection and ball security throughout training camp. His injury late in camp did not help his case either, as he fell well behind both David Fluellen and Dalyn Dawkins on the depth chart. Wadley was an […]
Sam 6 years agoTitans Waive Rookie Deontay Burnett
The Tennessee Titans have waived rookie wide receiver Deontay Burnett despite a solid training camp. Burnett was expected by many to make the roster as the fifth or sixth receiver, but his small frame and inability to play special teams likely played into the decision to ultimately cut him. Burnett still has the talent and […]
Sam 6 years agoAkrum Wadley Not A Factor In Preseason Finale
Tennessee Titans rookie running back Akrum Wadley was not very involved in the team's preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings, rushing only four times for 16 yards. At one time Wadley seemed to have the inside track for the team's fourth running back position, but his nagging injury over the last couple weeks might have […]
Sam 6 years agoDalyn Dawkins Gets Big Workload In Preseason Finale
Tennessee Titans running back Dalyn Dawkins saw a big workload in Thursday's preseason finale versus the Minnesota Vikings, rushing 17 times for 53 yards. Dawkins also saw four targets in the passing game but was unable to haul any in. Dawkins came in after veteran David Fluellen, who is a lock to make the roster […]
Sam 6 years agoLuke Falk Unimpressive In Preseason Finale
Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Luke Falk was given the entire fourth preseason game to show what he is capable of, but he struggled to move the offense down the field and finished with only 114 yards passing and no touchdowns. Falk never really looked too comfortable in the pocket despite having decent protection on the […]
Sam 6 years agoRishard Matthews Taken Off Physically Unable To Perform
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Rishard Matthews passed his physical on Sunday and was removed from the physically unable to perform list. After signing a one-year contract extension a week ago, Matthews hinted that he was close to a full return after missing all of training camp recovering from a torn meniscus. Now that Matthews has […]
Sam 6 years agoTaywan Taylor Quiet After Big Performance Last Week
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor was held to only one catch for nine yards in the team's Week 3 preseason loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite the lack of production, Taylor did see five targets in a quarter and a half, which is two more than any other starter saw. Taylor is set to […]
Sam 6 years agoCorey Davis Held Without A Catch Again
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis ended his 2018 preseason against the Pittsburgh Steelers without a catch. With starters almost certain to sit out next week in the preseason finale, this performance will not leave a good impression on Davis owners heading into the regular season. While he has had great reports out of the […]
Sam 6 years agoDion Lewis Catches Three Passes Against Steelers
Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis was involved in both the rushing and passing game plan in the team's Week 3 preseason loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, rushing three times for 11 yards and catching three passes for 20 yards. While neither total is very impressive, it is promising for Lewis to have three receptions […]
Sam 6 years agoDerrick Henry Ineffective In Loss To Steelers
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry was held in check against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday, managing only 12 yards on five carries. The entire offense looked overmatched in this outing, especially the offensive line. Henry had little room to run against the defensive front, although he did have an impressive run early in the […]
Sam 6 years agoMarcus Mariota Struggles Against Steelers
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota struggled to get the passing game going Saturday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Mariota passed for only 43 yards and an interception in a little less than a half of play, including a big missed opportunity to Corey Davis down the field. While this was not Mariota's best performance it is […]
Sam 6 years agoTaywan Taylor Looking To Build On Impressive Performance
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor stole the show last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as he had four catches for 95 yards and two touchdowns. With the starting offense expected to play about a half this week against the Pittsburgh Steelers, look for Taylor to once again be a major part of the […]
Sam 6 years agoTitans Need To Get Corey Davis Going Saturday
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis was held without a catch last week in limited action, but with the great offseason reviews, look for him to be more of a focal point of the offense Saturday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The starting offense is expected to play about a half, giving Davis his most extended […]
Sam 6 years agoDelanie Walker Not Playing Versus Steelers
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker has been out of practice the last two weeks with an undisclosed injury, almost certainly guaranteeing that he will not take the field Saturday when the Titans face the Pittsburgh Steelers. This should come as no surprise as the veteran has nothing to prove going into his sixth year […]
Sam 6 years agoDerrick Henry And Dion Lewis Should Get More Work
Tennessee Titans running backs Derrick Henry and Dion Lewis only played two series last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but head coach Mike Vrabel has been vocal this week about wanting to run the ball more with the starting offense. With the starters expected to play about a half, both Henry and Lewis have […]
Sam 6 years agoMarcus Mariota Expected To Play About A Half
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota and the starting offense should get a longer look Saturday against the Pittsburgh Steelers with reports of about a half of playing time. Prior to this week, Mariota has only played three series in the preseason but has scored two touchdowns. The Titans will try to carry that efficiency forward […]
