Tennessee Titans Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

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 DT Jeffery Simmons says he expects to be ready to play after the team's Week 5 bye. Simmons missed Monday night's win over the Dolphins with a left-elbow injury that he said was a torn ligament, according to ESPN's Turron Davenport. "I feel much better right now, much better today," Simmons said. "Going into this bye week will be good for me to keep my conditioning up and with my elbow. I know I'll be ready to roll against the Colts."

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 CB L'Jarius Sneed (hamstring) and S Amani Hooker (face) are active for tonight's game against the Dolphins. DT Jeffery Simmons (elbow) is inactive as expected. He entered the night doubtful.

The Titans are likely to be without DT Jeffery Simmons on Monday night against the Dolphins. He's doubtful with an elbow injury. They also might miss CB L'Jarius Sneed and/or S Amani Hooker. Sneed is questionable with a hamstring issue. He had been listed for just a rest day earlier in the week but turned up limited Saturday. Hooker is questionable because of a gash on his right cheek that required eight stitches. The team also placed CB Chidobe Awuzie on IR Saturday with a groin injury. Tennessee's D remains in play for fantasy use because of the QB trouble in Miami. But the injuries add downside risk.

Titans WR DeAndre Hopkins caught six of seven targets for 73 yards and a score in the Week 3 loss to the Packers. The targets, catches, and receiving yards all led the team. The TD was vintage Hopkins: A contested grab before fighting through his defender into the end zone.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Packers. He put in a full practice on Friday, so we’re not expecting the ankle to be a major issue. Still, Spears would be a shaky fantasy starter after seeing just four carries with four targets in a healthy Week 1.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) is expected to play today. He's listed as questionable but was a full-go in Friday's practice. We're not expecting the ankle to be a major factor today, but Spears remains a fringy fantasy play.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. He put in a full practice on Friday, though, and HC Brian Callahan confirmed that Spears will play. He’d be a shaky fantasy starter after seeing just four carries with four targets in a healthy Week 1.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That seemingly puts him on track to play vs. the Packers this weekend, but we'll see how Spears is listed on the final injury report tomorrow. He'd be no better than a low-end RB3 if he suits up, but he'd siphon touches from lead back Tony Pollard.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He told reporters afterward that he'll play vs. the Packers this weekend, but we'll see about that. Spears did not return to last week's game after hurting his ankle. We'll update his status again tomorrow.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears is considered "day-to-day" with the ankle injury suffered in Week 2, HC Brian Callahan said Monday. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport called Spears' injury "nothing major." It's good news, although Spears' availability for this weekend's game vs. the Packers remains uncertain. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the week. Spears' absence would turn RB Tony Pollard into an every-down back.

Ahead of Sunday’s game, Titans HC Brian Callahan said he wanted a closer workload split between RBs Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears. But with Spears leaving Sunday’s game with a shoulder injury, Pollard again finished as the clear lead back with 21 touches.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Jets with an ankle injury. We'll pass along an update on his status when we get one.

Titans HC Brian Callahan said Wednesday that WR DeAndre Hopkins' role should increase in this weekend's game vs. the Jets. Hopkins played just 17 snaps (27%) in the Week 1 loss to the Bears, coming off his summer knee injury.

Titans RB Tony Pollard out-carried RB Tyjae Spears 16 to four in Sunday's opener vs. the Bears. Both backs saw four targets. Pollard looked more explosive than he did at any point of his disappointing 2023 season. He ripped off 82 rushing yards for 5.1 yards per carry, highlighted by this 26-yard score in the first quarter. Pollard added 12 more yards on three catches.

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 WR DeAndre Hopkins (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Bears. He was limited in practice all week coming off his late-July knee injury and is unlikely to be at 100% today. We’d try to not use Hopkins in Week 1 fantasy lineups.
