- TENTitans Fire Offensive Coordinator Todd Downing
The Tennessee Titans fired offensive coordinator Todd Downing on Monday. In addition to Downing, the Titans let go of offensive line coach Keith Carter, secondary coach Anthony Midget and offensive skills assistant Erik Frazier. Tennessee finished the year 7-10 and lost their last seven games to miss out on a postseason spot. Despite Downing leaving, quarterback Ryan Tannehill said on Monday that he wants to return in 2023 after ending the year on Injured Reserve due to an ankle injury. The Titans would save around $18 million in salary cap space if they cut Tannehill this offseason after he finished with 2,536 passing yards, 15 total touchdowns and six interceptions in 12 games. Under Downing in 2022, the offense ranked 30th in the NFL in yards per game (296.8) and 28th in points per game (17.5).

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (groin) is officially questionable to face the Jacksonville Jaguars, but head coach Mike Vrabel said he thinks Burks will be able to play. This is a must-win situation for Tennessee in a win-or-go-home scenario, so if he's on the fence about playing, he'll likely give it a shot. If active, Burks has a low floor in an offense led by quarterback Joshua Dobbs, but he's a solid bargain at wide receiver for DFS purposes. The Jaguars are just a neutral matchup for wideouts, but with limited options for a two-game or single-game DFS contest, he has touchdown and big-play upside.

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hip) was listed on the injury report this week, despite practicing in full on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. However, he's now off the final injury report, so he'll be a full go against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 18. Henry is an easy must-start in fantasy leagues that extend to Week 18, but he's also a solid player to build a DFS lineup around. The Titans are in a must-win situation with a playoff berth on the line, so there's no cap on his workload. Henry has averaged 155.3 rushing yards in his last three games against the Jaguars, finding the end zone six times over that span.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks (groin) was added to the Week 18 injury report and was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday due to a groin injury. Mid-week additions to the injury report usually aren't a good thing, but at least Burks was able to practice in some fashion. It puts the 22-year-old first-rounder's status for Saturday's divisional showdown with the Jacksonville Jaguars in jeopardy. There's a lot to like about Burks' long-term potential in the NFL, but he's been up and down in his first NFL season with 29 receptions for 425 yards and one touchdown on 47 targets in his 10 games played. If he plays Saturday, he'll be a boom/bust DFS option with quarterback Joshua Dobbs making his second start this year. Last week with Dobbs under center, Burks had four catches (eight targets) for 66 yards.

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hip) is expected to return to action in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Jacksonville Jaguars after missing last Thursday's game with a hip injury. Henry was a full participant in Wednesday's practice for the second straight day. The Titans had nothing to play for in Week 17, so they wisely rested Henry. In a winner-take-all contest this weekend, the 29-year-old running back will be a must-start, high-end RB1 for fantasy managers. With quarterback Joshua Dobbs making his second straight start, the Titans will surely lean heavily on King Henry's shoulders as they attempt to win the AFC South division. In the first meeting with Jacksonville in Week 14, Henry had 17 carries for 121 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hip) missed their Week 17 game due to injury, but the outcome had no playoff implications. He returned to practice on Tuesday with full participation, indicating he is on track to play on Saturday against the Jaguars. The winner will clinch the AFC South division crown, earning the opportunity to host a playoff game. The 29-year-old has over 100 rushing yards and a score in three straight games, one of which was when these two teams faced each other in Week 14. The offense looked better with Joshua Dobbs at the helm, locking Henry in as a must-start.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Joshua Dobbs will start at quarterback against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday night. The Titans vs. Jaguars has been flexed to Saturday at 8:15 PM Easter, as the winner will win the AFC South and host a playoff game in the Wild Card round. In the first start of his career in Week 17, Dobbs completed 20 of his 39 passing attempts for 232 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Tennessee ultimately lost to the Dallas Cowboys, but the offense looked better than it had with Malik Willis under center. Dobbs is strictly a Superflex/two-QB league option in Week 18.

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hip) has officially been ruled out for the Week 17 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. This shouldn't come as a surprise considering the Titans have been talking about resting Henry all week. They will sit their superstar back in a fairly meaningless game in order to keep him healthy for Week 18. The expectation is that Hassan Haskins will be the lead back with undrafted rookie Julius Chestnut to serve as the primary backup. Neither of these backs should be considered trustworthy for this Week 17 matchup. Haskins should see a bulk of the carries, but remains a deep league flex option.

The Tennessee Titans placed quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Thursday, almost certainly ending his 2022 season. The Titans also put outside linebacker Bud Dupree (pectoral) and linebacker Zach Cunningham (elbow) on Injured Reserve. Even if the Titans make the playoffs and make a deep postseason run, there's no guarantee that Tannehill would be ready to play after having surgery for a high-ankle sprain. Rookie Malik Willis made the start in last week's loss to the Houston Texans, but he's being benched in favor of practice-squad QB Joshua Dobbs on Thursday night in Week 17 against the Dallas Cowboys. It's an understatement to say that the Titans are limping into a winner-take-all divisional matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 18.

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hip), who is doubtful to play on Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys, will return to play in the regular season finale in Week 18 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to a source. The Titans will get into the playoffs if they win in Week 18 -- Thursday's game against Dallas will have no bearing on whether or not they make the postseason. As a result, the Titans are resting King Henry and will also bench rookie quarterback Malik Willis in favor of practice-squad QB Joshua Dobbs. Fantasy managers are likely pretty unhappy that they won't have Henry during championship week in most leagues, but you should be good if your championship matchup isn't until next week. Rookies Hassan Haskins and Julius Chestnut will see more playing time on Thursday night, with Haskins expected to have the bigger role.
