Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder) completed 19 of 32 passes for 168 yards with zero touchdowns or interceptions in a 10-6 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday. After showing much promise over the past few weeks against some tough defenses, Levis reverted back to early season-form in this one. Tennessee struggled to move the ball against one of the worst defenses in the NFL and came up short on two fourth-quarter drives to win the game. It was a horrific performance by Levis, and this Titans offense managed only 5.3 yards per attempt. It's worth noting that Levis was hit hard at the end of the first half, potentially aggravating his AC joint sprain. The same injury kept Levis out for multiple weeks earlier in the year. That could have affected his performance in the second half and may impact his status against the Bengals for next week. Even if he is good to go, Levis is back to his lower-end QB2 ways after this performance.
Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears rushed six times for 21 yards while adding one catch for two yards in the 10-6 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday. It was the first week in a while. Spears did not appear on the injury report, but his full health did not lead to more opportunities. Jacksonville surprisingly held the Titans in check all afternoon, but Tony Pollard was still able to put up 124 yards on 23 touches while Spears operated as the clear-cut backup once again. It's been mostly the same story all season for Spears, who has taken a back seat to Pollard even when he's been healthy enough to get on the field. The second-year back out of Tulane should be well off the fantasy radar next week vs. Cincinnati.
Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard rushed 21 times for 102 yards while adding two receptions on as many targets for 22 yards in the 10-6 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday. While it was an abysmal performance from the Titans offense who only mustered six points against the NFL's worst defense, Pollard was the lone bright spot on the day. The former Cowboy posted his third 100-plus yard rushing game of the season and averaged a healthy 4.9 YPC, tied for his fourth-highest mark of the year. Pollard also dominated the touches once again, receiving 23 opportunities in comparison to his backfield mate Tyjae Spears' eight. With the fantasy playoffs starting next week vs. Cincinnati, Pollard checks in as a high-floor RB2 but with limited upside due to the volatility of this Titans offense.
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk has seen his workload increase over the last few weeks. In fact, Folk has made all seven of his field goal attempts over the last three games. The veteran kicker has been solid as he has missed only one kick all season long. The assumption is that Folk should continue having decent streaming appeal against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14. The Titans offense should be able to have success moving the ball which should put Folk in a position to succeed this weekend.
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Matthew Wright will face the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night in Week 14. In last week's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, Wright nailed four of his five field goal attempts and his only point-after attempt. The 28-year-old was added to the active roster after the Chiefs lost Spencer Shrader to an injury. Shrader was placed on injured reserve, joining fellow kicker Harrison Butker on that list. Butker is eligible to return in Week 15, giving Wright at least one more week as the team's active placekicker. Wright is ranked as the 18th-best kicker in our RotoBaller rankings this week, meaning he should not be started in most leagues. Fantasy managers can likely find better options than Wright this week.
