Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) put in a full practice on Thursday.  We still haven't heard that he's received full medical clearance, but HC Ken Whisenhunt confirmed that Walker is expected to play against the Eagles this weekend.  He'll be a solid fantasy starter in a game that figures to see Tennessee playing from behind.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) put in another limited practice on Wednesday.  He still hasn't received full clearance but is definitely trending in that direction.  Check back tomorrow for another update.  If he plays this weekend, Walker will be a fine fantasy starter against the Eagles.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) is inactive for tonight's game against the Steelers.  He was able to practice on Saturday, which bodes well for his chances of returning for Week 12.  Walker's absence tonight could mean a few extra short-range targets for WR Kendall Wright.  RB Dexter McCluster (knee) is active but isn't a fantasy option.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) is questionable for Monday night's game against the Steelers.  He put in a limited practice on Saturday but still needs to pass through a couple more stages of the concussion protocol.  We'd consider him worse than 50-50 to play on Monday and wouldn't be waiting for him in fantasy leagues.

Titans TE Delanie Walker suffered a concussion in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game. It’s his 2nd concussion in the past 11 months, which will make it tougher to get cleared in time for Week 11. We’ll track his progress through the league’s protocol.

Titans TE Delanie Walker suffered a head injury on a big hit in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game.  He was able to walk off the field under his own power and was then carted back into the locker room.  He'll be evaluated for a concussion and seems unlikely to return.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (shoulder) is active for today’s game against the Colts. The shoulder issue adds risk, and Tennessee’s offense figures to struggle with Charlie Whitehurst under center. But Walker could see a bunch of short targets from Whitehurst. And the Colts rank #28 against TEs. It makes Walker a low-end TE1 for Week 4.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Titans TE Delanie Walker (shoulder) will play against the Colts today.  Walker got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday.  With QB Charlie Whitehurst under center, the Titans offense figures to struggle today.  That leaves Walker without a ton of upside.  But he could be busy on short, checkdown-type throws from Whitehurst.  Consider Walker a low-end TE1.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (shoulder) is questionable for this weekend’s game against the Colts. He put in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. We’ll know his status by noon ET on Sunday, but Walker will be a shaky fantasy bet if active. He’s not at 100% and will be catching passes from a bum-wristed Jake Locker or journeyman Charlie Whitehurst.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (shoulder) returned to a limited practice on Thursday.  It gives him a shot to play against the Colts this weekend.  But between the shoulder and Tennessee's QB situation, Walker is a shaky Week 4 fantasy bet.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday.  It's unclear when Walker injured the shoulder last week, but he played a season-low 63% of the snaps.  Consider him questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.  We'll update his status again tomorrow.

Per team insider Jim Wyatt, Titans TE Delanie Walker has struggled with drops in training camp. Walker had butter fingers while a member of the 49ers. But in 2013 – his first year in Tennessee – he posted an acceptable 7.69% drop rate (nearly identical to Jason Witten’s mark). It’s something to watch this preseason, but we still like Walker as a high-end TE2. The Titans open their preseason Saturday against Green Bay.

Jim Wyatt of The Tennessean believes “all signs point to a big year” from Titans TE Delanie Walker. The former 49er finished 2013 with a solid 60-571-6 line. But it could have been even better, as he was limited in OTAs last year with a knee injury and began training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list. Now fully healthy, Wyatt expects Walker to finish in the “60-catch neighborhood” again in 2014. We'd add that Walker has a great chance at improving his 9.5 yards-per-catch mark from last season.  There’s TE1 appeal here, although he's best suited as 1 part of a fantasy committee.

The Titans' new coaching staff is loaded with TE expertise.  HC Ken Whisenhunt played TE for 9 NFL seasons and has coached the position in the college and pro ranks.  OC Jason Michael is a former Chargers TE coach.  And Tennessee just hired former NFL TE Mike Mularkey as TEs coach.  So it stands to reason that TE Delanie Walker might have a significant role in the team's passing attack.  "I’m excited that he’s on this team and I’ll have a chance to work with him," Whisenhunt said. “Working with Antonio Gates got me excited about the position, and I think there’s a lot of elements to what Delanie does that are similar in that capacity.”  Walker turned in a solid 60-571-6 line in 2013, finishing 12th among TEs in fantasy points.  He's capable of at least matching that production this coming season.  Walker will be a fine target as part of a TE-by-committee for your fantasy squad.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) is active for today’s game against the Cardinals.  He was red hot before suffering that head injury and gets the league’s worst TE defense this afternoon.  Walker is a viable fantasy starter for Week 15.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) put in a full week of practice and is probable for Sunday’s game against the Cardinals.  Walker was red hot prior to that head injury, leading all TEs in fantasy points from Weeks 10-12.  He’s a viable fantasy starter this Sunday against the league’s worst TE defense.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) returned to practice on Wednesday.  It's confirmation that he's on track to play against Arizona's league-worst TE defense this weekend.  Walker had racked up 19 catches, 199 yards and 2 scores in his 3 games before suffering that concussion. He was fantasy's top TE during that stretch.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) is inactive for today's game against the Broncos.  He wasn't even cleared to practice as of Friday.  Consider Walker questionable for Week 15.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos, despite not practicing all week.  It looks like the team will put him through concussion testing at least 1 more time in hopes of gaining clearance, but that seems unlikely.  Fantasy owners shouldn't be counting on Walker this week.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (concussion) was held out of practice again on Thursday.  That makes him unlikely to be cleared ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos.  Hopefully Walker will be ready for Week 15's dream matchup against the Cardinals.
