According to Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan, he has not yet made a decision on his starting quarterback moving forward. Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com reported the news. Mason Rudolph got his fourth start of the year in Week 16 after taking over for a benched Will Levis the Sunday prior. Rudolph played relatively well, though he did toss three interceptions in their 38-30 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. "My goal is to put the QB on the field who gives us the best chance to win," said Callahan. With the head coach unwilling to dub the 29-year-old the team's starter moving forward, it leaves the door open for Levis to re-garner control of the offense with two weeks' worth of football left to play. Whoever is the starter in Week 17 will be primed for success in another exploitable divisional clash against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Tennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph completed 23-of-34 passes for 252 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Colts and tacked on another three yards rushing on four carries. Rudolph also threw three interceptions in his return to the starting job, marking his fifth appearance in a row with at least one pick. If it weren't for the abundance of turnovers, Rudolph would make a fine fantasy quarterback, given he's passed for two touchdowns in each of his last three outings. He makes for a solid waiver wire pickup or starting option in 2QB leagues as he faces a Jaguars defense giving up the second-most points to fantasy QBs in Week 17.
Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan confirmed Mason Rudolph will start at quarterback against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 16, but he is not naming him the starter for the rest of the season and will take it week by week. The veteran and former Pittsburgh Steelers backup is set to take over for Will Levis after another turnover-heavy game from the 2023 second-round pick out of Kentucky. Although the Colts have allowed the 12th-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, Rudolph is not worth rolling the dice on in the fantasy football playoffs. However, he has a small shot at upside for those counting on him in two-QB and Superflex leagues. If he posts a disastrous performance in Week 16, the Titans could go back to Levis in Week 17.
The Tennessee Titans are expected to start Mason Rudolph at quarterback against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 16, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. This means 2023 second-round pick Will Levis is headed to the bench. Levis has committed 14 turnovers in just 11 games this season and has thrown for just 12 touchdowns. Rudolph has played in five games for Tennessee this year, completing 63% of his passes for 1,015 yards, six touchdowns, and five interceptions. The quarterback change does not dramatically affect the fantasy football outlooks for Tennessee's offensive weapons, but the offense could sustain more drives with the veteran under center.
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis has been benched and replaced by Mason Rudolph during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 15 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The second-year quarterback led two touchdown drives early in the contest, but then the Titans turned the football over four times. At the time of his departure, Levis had completed eight of 12 passes for 89 yards, zero touchdowns, and three interceptions. Rudolph saw a little bit of action when Levis was injured earlier in the year, compiling a 59.4 percent completion rate, five total touchdowns, and five turnovers. Fantasy managers should stay tuned to see if Levis returns to the starting role next Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, or if Rudolph wins the competition.
