Nick Folk Dealing With Injury
4 months agoTennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (undisclosed) could be in danger of missing the Week 15 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The veteran kicker is currently dealing with an injury, according to Mike Garafolo. That being said, the Titans have signed Brayden Narveson to their practice squad as insurance in case Folk is unable to go this weekend. Folk has been extremely reliable as a kicker this season with only one missed field goal heading into Week 15. His absence would certainly be frustrating especially given the fact that many leagues are beginning the playoffs this week. However, fantasy managers will have to wait until later in the week for more news on Folk.

Nick Folk Logs Limited Session Thursday
3 months agoTennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. This was an improvement for the 40-year-old after being estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday. Folk kicked in each of the Titans' first 14 games this season, but he has missed the last two contests due to injury. His return to practice on Thursday comes one day after the Titans released Matthew Wright from their active roster. All signs point to Folk suiting up for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Houston Texans.

Nick Folk Estimated As Non-Participant Wednesday
3 months agoTennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimation. The veteran kicker has missed two consecutive games due to injury and now faces an uphill battle to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Houston Texans. It's an unfortunate ending to what had been an otherwise solid season for Folk. Through 14 games, the 40-year-old went 25-for-25 on extra points and 21-for-22 on field goals. Tennessee has no other kickers on its roster after waiving Matthew Wright, so it's unclear who would handle kicking duties if Folk can't suit up in Week 18.

Nick Folk Unavailable For Week 17
3 months agoTennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) has been ruled out for the Week 17 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Folk hasn't been able to practice this week due to an abdominal issue which will force him to miss his second straight game. The expectation is that Matthew Wright will be elevated from the practice squad to kick this weekend. Brayden Narveson kicked last week for Tennessee, but was cut after he missed his lone field goal attempt. Wright has made 11-of-12 field goal attempts and all his extra point attempts in three games between the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs. He has been productive when active, so fantasy managers looking for a possible streaming option might want to consider Wright.

Nick Folk Sidelined Again On Thursday
3 months agoAccording to Turron Davenport of ESPN, Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) did not practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Folk did not suit up last weekend and is in danger of missing his second-straight contest. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status on Friday in case he is able to practice in some capacity. However, the 40-year-old will likely face an uphill battle to return to action this weekend. Across 14 games this season, Folk has posted an impressive 95.5% FG conversion rate and has gone a perfect 25-for-25 on extra points. Brayden Narveson will get the starting nod if Folk cannot play on Sunday. However, given the inconsistencies of the Tennessee offense, both kickers should not be in your starting lineup in the fantasy playoffs.
