Adam Humphries' Chemistry Lacking With Marcus Mariota
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Adam Humphries said his chemistry with quarterback Marcus Mariota is a work in progress.

Marcus Mariota Will Practice In Full Tuesday
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that quarterback Marcus Mariota (quadriceps) will practice in full on Tuesday. On a short week going up a very respectable defense, Mariota is a last-gasp QB2 in two-QB leagues on Thursday night. Tennessee's offense remains a slow-paced, run-first unit and Mariota just is way too inconsistent with the […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We'll start off right away with the disclaimer: The Titans have a slow-paced, run-first offense led by an inaccurate and injury-prone quarterback in Marcus Mariota.

Marcus Mariota's Injury Not Serious
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota's (quadriceps) injury is not very serious. In an estimation of the practice statuses on Monday, Mariota was listed as a did not practice.

Marcus Mariota, A.J. Brown On Week 3 Injury Report
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (quadriceps) and rookie wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) are both listed on the Week 3 injury report on Monday.

Adam Humphries Not A Factor In Week 2

Corey Davis Has Another Quiet Week
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis struggled to get going once again in the team's 19-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

Delanie Walker Leads Team In Targets Once Again
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker caught four of six targets for 32 yards in the team's 19-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Despite a lackluster fantasy performance, Walker once again led the team in targets. While his upside may be limited by the pace of the Titans offense, Walker should continue to be the […]
Dion Lewis Not Involved In Offense In Week 2
Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis does not seem to have much of a role on the team's 2019 offense thus far. Lewis rushed three times for nine yards and caught his lone target in their 19-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Despite trailing in the fourth quarter, Lewis was still not utilized much by […]
Derrick Henry With Another Strong Performance
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry had another strong game in Week 2, rushing 15 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and adding two catches for 12 yards.

Marcus Mariota Fails To Deliver In Week 2
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota completed 19 of 28 attempts for just 154 yards and one touchdown in the team's 19-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Mariota did add five rushes for 32 yards on the ground, but he appeared to be more timid in the passing game than we saw a week ago in […]

Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis saw only six total touches compared to 20 for Derrick Henry in Week 1, but Week 2 presents a very favorable matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Corey Davis Not In Play In Week 2
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis is not a recommended fantasy option in Week 2 coming off of a game where he caught zero of three targets.
