Derrick Henry Looking To Bounce Back In Week 2
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry was unable to get much going in Week 1 aside from a long touchdown which was called back, finishing with only 26 yards on 10 carries. Henry was the first one to admit that he was not happy with his play against the Miami Dolphins, stating, "I feel like […]
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 […]
Jack Conklin, Taylor Lewan Miss Practice Thursday
Tennessee Titans offensive tackles Jack Conklin (knee) and Taylor Lewan (concussion) both missed practice on Thursday. Conklin was limited on Wednesday, so this isn't a good sign for his status heading into Week 2 against the Texans. The Titans offensive line is in bad shape if they miss their left and right tackles this weekend. […]
Corey Davis Says He's Fine
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (hamstring) said he's fine heading into Week 2 against the Texans. Davis should be fine to play this Sunday against Houston. He's not the sexiest fantasy weapon in a run-first offense, but keep in mind that he was targeted 13 times in Week 1 and caught six passes for […]
Titans Sign MyCole Pruitt
The Tennessee Titans signed free-agent tight end MyCole Pruitt to help bolster their tight end depth with Delanie Walker (ankle) lost for the season. Pruitt was signed off the Texans practice squad this week and will fill in behind Jonnu Smith, Luke Stocker and Anthony Firkser. MyCole has 12 catches for 122 yards in 21 […]
Jonnu Smith To See More Opportunities
Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith is expected to see plenty more opportunities with Delanie Walker (ankle) out for the season. Smith played 40 snaps in Week 1 against the Dolphins and had one catch for 12 yards on three targets. He should see a lot of looks on short and intermediate routes. Wide receiver […]
Corey Davis Gets In Limited Practice
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (hamstring) was limited in practice Wednesday. This shouldn't be an injury that keeps Davis from playing in Week 2 against the Texans unless he makes it worse this week in practice. The 23-year-old had six catches on 13 targets for 62 yards in the season opener. With tight end […]
Taylor Lewan Doesn't Practice Wednesday
Tennessee Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday and was sent home and told to rest by the medical staff. That's not a good sign for the team's top offensive lineman heading into a matchup against a Texans team with a strong pass rush. Quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) is also dealing […]
Marcus Mariota Should Play In Week 2
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) practiced on Wednesday and is "feeling good," according to head coach Mike Vrabel. Barring a setback, Mariota should be good to go for Week 2 against the Texans. How productive he'll be if he plays is an entirely different story. The Titans are dealing with injuries to their two […]

Deeper PPR Sleepers Heading Into Week 2
As is tradition, Week 1 provided the usual head-scratching performances we've grown accustomed to start the year. Matthew Stafford looked discombobulated, the Amari Cooper rebound year did not get off to a good start, and LeSean McCoy looks hopeless in Buffalo. All these disappointments aside, we did end up with some positive takeaways. Here you'll find your […]

Week 2 Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
Week 1 was not a memorable opening week for NFL tight ends. While New England’s Rob Gronkowski got off to a great start (123 yards and a TD), other top tight ends were not as fortunate.

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 2)
This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]

When it comes to building rosters in dynasty leagues, it is all about youth first and foremost. Not so fast! Especially if you are in a win-now situation, veterans can be a key component to a winning roster. Some players flourish, even near the end of their careers, and while the easiest thing to do […]
Titans Still Evaluating Marcus Mariota
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) is still being evaluated, and the team is hoping for good news. Mariota had to leave the Week 1 contest against the Dolphins and was experiencing numbness in his hand and fingers. That doesn't seem to be a good sign, but we'll wait […]
Delanie Walker Not Expected Back This Year
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) suffered a broken ankle and ligament damage in Week 1 against the Dolphins, according to a source. As a result, he's not expected to play again this year. Walker was drafted as a TE1 by most fantasy owners once the elite names at the position came off the […]
Jonnu Smith (TE, TEN) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith is in a good spot to get a lot of playing time. Delanie Walker's misfortune now creates an opportunity for Smith to shine in his second season. Walker left the first contest of the year with an ankle […]
Taylor Lewan Suffers Concussion
Tennessee Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan (head) suffered a concussion in Week 1 against the Dolphins and didn't return to the game. Lewan was hit by defensive lineman Andre Branch during an interception return. Lewan will be put through the concussion protocol this week and will probably be questionable for Week 2. That'll be bad […]
Corey 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 […]
Derrick 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 […]
Dion 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 […]
Blaine Gabbert Struggles In Relief Effort
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 […]
Marcus Mariota Injures Elbow In Loss
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 […]
Delanie 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 […]
