Tennessee Titans

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis faces the reeling Jacksonville Jaguars this weekend in a divisional battle. The young quarterback has shown marked improvement since returning from injury, finishing as a top-20 quarterback each of the past four weeks, including one top-10 finish. The bar was extremely low for the Kentucky product, as he had failed to reach even that threshold in four out of five weeks to begin the year. While it's not pretty all of the time, Levis has thrown for seven touchdowns to two interceptions since Week 10 and looks much more comfortable in this offense. Unfortunately, the Titans are No. 1 in the league in sacks allowed during this time, but it's promising that Levis has still managed to put up decent numbers instead of this issue. This week, Levis faces a Jaguars defense that is 31st against opposing quarterbacks, which puts him as a potential streamer with six teams on the bye. It's possible that Tennessee opts to go with a more ground-heavy offensive approach, given Jacksonville's struggles in that department. Still, Levis at home against an atrocious secondary should give fantasy managers a nice floor.

Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan said that wide receiver Treylon Burks (knee) had surgery on his torn ACL and will miss the rest of the season. Burks has been a bust for the Titans since they selected him 18th overall in 2022 out of Arkansas. The 24-year-old has played in only 27 games (17 starts) in his first three seasons in the NFL and has caught 53 passes on 92 targets for 699 yards and only one touchdown. He had been on Injured Reserve since Oct. 19. Burks wasn't exactly dealing with a full tear of his ACL, so perhaps he will be in play to start the 2025 regular season on time for the Titans. In just five games played in 2024 before his injury, Burks was well off the fantasy radar and had just four receptions for 34 yards and no touchdowns on eight targets. The Titans will continue to use Calvin Ridley, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Tyler Boyd in three-wide sets.

The Kansas City Chiefs placed kicker Spencer Shrader (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday and signed kicker Matthew Wright to the 53-man active roster in a corresponding move. Shrader will be required to miss at least the next four games, meaning he won't be eligible to return until the Week 18 regular-season finale in Denver against the division-rival Broncos. Shrader was initially signed when the team put regular kicker Harrison Butker (knee) on IR, but he only made it two games with the Chiefs before getting injured himself. Butker will be eligible to come off IR in Week 15 to face the Cleveland Browns, so Wright could only stick around in KC for another week. Last week in the win over the Raiders, Wright made four of his five field-goal attempts and his only extra point. He'll be on the streaming radar on Sunday night against the Chargers in fantasy.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley had just two catches for 45 yards on Sunday afternoon against the Washington Commanders. He was targeted seven times by Will Levis, who finished with a season-high 37 pass attempts. The Titans struggled to get much going overall on offense, but Ridley did make a nice sliding catch to set up their first touchdown just before halftime. However, it was a disappointing result for Ridley and the Titans this week, but they'll be in a good spot to bounce back at home against the Jaguars next week. Ridley remains the team's top option in the passing game and has drawn a huge target share since the DeAndre Hopkins trade. For Week 14, Ridley is a WR2 with WR1 upside.

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo had three catches for 27 yards on a season-high six targets in Week 13's ugly 42-19 loss to the Washington Commanders. Okonkwo had an impressive 70-yard touchdown catch last week in a critical spot in the Titans' road win over the Texans. This week, he didn't break any big plays like that but was more involved, matching his target total from the previous three weeks combined. The Titans were forced to throw the ball more based on the game script, but Okonkwo's increased involvement is a great sign for him coming down the stretch. He has tasty matchups for tight ends against the Jaguars, Bengals, and Colts over the next three weeks. He's a TE2 but has upside in those favorable matchups due to his big-play ability.
