Titans QB Will Levis (shoulder) put in a full practice on Wednesday. That has him on track to start this weekend's game vs. the Colts. The biggest fantasy impact there? The Colts DST is a nice Week 6 option. Levis has six INTs and three fumbles in a little more than three games this season.
Titans QB Will Levis has been diagnosed with an AC joint sprain in his right (throwing) shoulder but "should be ok" for Week 6's game vs. the Colts, according to insider Paul Kuharsky. Levis gets a well-timed Week 5 bye, and HC Brian Callahan said earlier this week that a healthy Levis remains the starter. That doesn't mean Levis won't be on a short leash if he continues turning the ball over like he has so far this season. He won't be a recommended Week 6 starter in any format. The Colts DST will be a streaming option.
Titans QB Will Levis will remain Tennessee’s starting QB when healthy, per HC Brian Callahan. Levis left Monday’s game against Miami with a shoulder injury.
Titans RB Tyjae Spears set season highs in carries (15) and yards (39) in Monday’s win over Miami. But Tony Pollard again led the backfield, this time with 88 yards on 22 carries. Tennessee lost QB Will Levis to injury in the first quarter and nursed a lead throughout the game. That produced 37 total team RB attempts.
Titans QB Will Levis injured his right shoulder on a scramble in the first quarter of Monday night's game vs. the Dolphins. He's officially questionable to return. Levis threw another bad INT before exiting, though, so the Titans might just roll with QB Mason Rudolph even if Levis is cleared to return.
Titans QB Will Levis threw for just 127 yards with one TD and two INTs in the Week 1 loss to the Bears. Tennessee's defense played well enough to win this game, but Levis couldn't get anything going and threw a horrific pick-six in the fourth quarter that wound up being the game-deciding score. Levis completed 19 of 32 passes (59%) and averaged just 4.0 yards per attempt
Titans HC Brian Callahan said Sunday that WR DeAndre Hopkins (knee) should be back soon and is on track to be ready for Week 1, per ESPN's Turron Davenport. Hopkins went down a little less than three weeks ago with a knee injury that was expected to cost him 4-6 weeks. It sounds like he'll be back on the short end of that timetable.
Titans HC Brian Callahan said Wednesday that the deep connection between QB Will Levis and new WR Calvin Ridley hasn't gone great so far. "Missed too many of them early on ... it's not been a great start," Callahan said, according to beat writer Paul Kuharsky.
DeAndre Hopkins strained a knee in practice and "indications are he could miss four to six weeks," according to Titans beat writer Paul Kuharsky. He said it wasn't immediately clear when the injury occurred. ESPN's Turron Davenport shared a video of Hopkins going through individual drills with his left knee wrapped Wednesday afternoon.
Titans HC Brian Callahan said QB Will Levis has been "really impressive" through the first two days of training camp.
The Titans signed WR Tyler Boyd to a one-year deal worth up to $4.5 million, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Boyd is reuniting with new Titans HC Brian Callahan, who spent the past five seasons with Boyd in Cincinnati. Boyd went for a career-high 1,046 yards in Callahan's first season as Bengals OC back in 2019, but his yardage has declined each year since, bottoming out at 667 last year. Boyd's Pro Football Focus receiving grade has also been in decline. He ranked 63rd among 80 qualifiers last year.
The Titans surprisingly landed WR Calvin Ridley on Wednesday with a four-year, $92 million deal, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The pact includes $50 million guaranteed, adding Ridley to a WR corps that returns DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks. That's probably the strongest collection of WR talent the franchise has had since moving from Houston to Nashville. And the Ridley move just might be the strongest sign that HC Brian Callahan's Titans plan to throw the ball quite a bit more than the Mike Vrabel version. Even big-money RB Tony Pollard brings more receiving pedigree than rushing. How will all these WRs fit together by target share? Burks figures to sit a clear third, barring some gigantic steps for him this summer. Ridley hasn't been as much of a target earner as Hopkins throughout their respective careers. So we'll likely favor Hopkins between them. But expect both veteran wideouts to garner shares of 20+%. As for scheme fit, Burks enjoyed quite a bit of success from the slot at Arkansas before arriving as a first-round pick. This will be a very interesting offense heading into the 2024 season. And the biggest individual winner might be QB Will Levis. He's available late in best ball drafts (QB27 Underdog Fantasy ADP) but can at least offer high weekly ceilings. There might be top-16 season upside to Levis. Check our best ball rankings for everyone's updated numbers.
The Titans are set to hire Brian Callahan as their new HC, according to multiple sources. It'll be the 39-year-old's first HC gig. Callahan spent the past five seasons as Cincinnati's OC, leading the Bengals to top-13 finishes in total yards and points in 2021 and 2022. Cincinnati sunk to 22nd in yards and 16th in points this past year, due in large part to QB Joe Burrow missing 7.5 games. Callahan was a pass-leaning play caller, with four of his five Bengals offenses ranking top-12 in pass rate, including a trio of top-6 finishes. That means a big shift is coming in Tennessee, where the Titans never finished higher than 25th in pass attempts in six seasons under HC Mike Vrabel. Callahan's arrival is certainly good news for the fantasy upside on QB Will Levis, WRs DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks, and TE Chig Okonkwo.
The Titans fired HC Mike Vrabel. Tennessee went 41-24 over Vrabel's first four seasons, making the playoffs in 2019, 2020, and 2021. But the Titans won just 13 games total over the last two seasons and ranked bottom-5 in total offense both years. This offense might look a lot different in 2024, with a new coaching staff and potentially no Derrick Henry.
