Chimere Dike Chimere Dike Scores twice in loss
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 2:31 AM
Dike recorded five receptions on seven targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Seahawks. He added a punt return for 90 yards and a touchdown and five kickoff returns for 98 yards.
Analysis: Dike was at the center of Tennessee's second-half comeback effort, which began with his 90-yard punt return for a score. He also brought the Titans within six points on a one-yard touchdown catch late in the fourth quarter. Dike took advantage of the absence of Calvin Ridley (leg) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring), and he should play a key role in the offense for the rest of his rookie campaign. |

Gunnar Helm Gunnar Helm Career-best performance
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 2:25 AM
Helm recorded six receptions on seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: The Titans showed at least a modest amount of offensive spark, and Helm was a bright spot in the loss. He tied for the team lead in targets and also paced the team in receptions and yards. Helm is emerging as Cam Ward's top target, especially with Calvin Ridley (lower leg) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) on the shelf, and the rookie tight end has recorded at least five targets in three of Tennessee's last five games. Helm's fantasy appeal is still limited, as he's been used exclusively in short areas of the field and has topped 35 yards only twice in 11 games. |

Tyjae Spears Tyjae Spears Works as complement to Pollard
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 2:18 AM
Spears rushed the ball three times or four yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Titans. He added four receptions on five targets for 21 yards.
Analysis: Spears continued to work as a complement to Tony Pollard, as he had only three rush attempts to Pollard's 11. Spears has now been held to single-digit rushing yards in each of his last two contests. Positively, he has remained involved as a pass catcher, recording at least three receptions in six straight games. |

Tony Pollard Tony Pollard Totals 15 touches
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 2:13 AM
Pollard rushed the ball 11 times for 20 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to Seattle. He added four receptions on five targets for 21 yards.
Analysis: Pollard continued to work as Tennessee's lead back, totaling 15 touches compared to seven for Tyjae Spears. He wasn't particularly effective as either a pass catcher or rusher, and he's now been held below 50 yards from scrimmage in consecutive games. The lone positive for Pollard has been his increased involvement as a pass catcher, as he's combined to record seven catches in his last two matchups. |

Chig Okonkwo Chig Okonkwo Tallies 40 yards in Week 12 loss
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 7:27 PM
Okonkwo caught three passes (on four targets) for 40 yards during the Titans' 30-24 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Okonkwo was cleared to play Sunday after working through a foot injury during Week 12 prep. He was one of four Titans pass catchers to log at least 40 receiving yards, though notably, he was outproduced by rookie tight end Gunnar Helm, the latter of whom led Tennessee with six catches for 51 yards while tying Chimere Dike for a team-high seven targets. Okonkwo has caught at least three passes in three of his last four games, and for the year he has accumulated 35 catches (on 46 targets) for 377 yards and zero touchdowns across 11 regular-season games. Next up for the Titans is a Week 13 clash against the Jaguars, whose defense yielded a 9-79-0 line (on 10 targets) to Trey McBride in an overtime win over the Cardinals on Sunday. |

Kalel Mullings Kalel Mullings Back to action
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 11:00 AM
Mullings (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Mullings was activated off injured reserve Saturday in anticipation for Sunday's contest, his first game since Week 3 against the Colts. The rookie sixth-rounder has worked his way back from an ankle injury he sustained in that Week 3 loss and will take his place behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears as the third running back for the Titans' offense. |

Kalel Mullings Kalel Mullings Activated off IR
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 3:51 PM
The Titans activated Mullings (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official website reports.
Analysis: Mullings has officially been activated off injured reserve after his practice window was opened 12 days ago. The 23-year-old is still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Seattle, but this move, along with three straight full practices, gives him a chance to appear in his third game this season, likely on special teams. |

Xavier Restrepo Xavier Restrepo Elevated from practice squad
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 1:17 PM
The Titans elevated Restrepo from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Restrepo is slated to make his NFL regular-season debut against the Seahawks on Sunday. Given his college connection with quarterback Cam Ward, coupled with the absences of Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) and Calvin Ridley (fibula - IR), Restrepo could see some snaps on offense right off the bat, though it would likely be in a rotational role behind the likes of Chimere Dike, Van Jefferson, Mason Kinsey and James Proche. |

Xavier Restrepo Xavier Restrepo Slated to make NFL debut Week 12
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 1:02 PM
The Titans are expected to elevate Restrepo off the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: With Calvin Ridley (fibula - IR) sidelined for the rest of the season and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) ruled out for Week 12, the Titans will add depth to their wide receiver corps by calling up Restrepo from the practice squad. Restrepo signed with the Titans in late April as an undrafted free agent, and he could be involved in the offense immediately due to his college connection with Cam Ward. Restrepo caught 69 passes for 1,127 yards and 11 touchdowns in 12 games during his final season in Miami with Ward as the starting QB. |

Kalel Mullings Kalel Mullings Questionable for Week 12
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 6:17 PM
Mullings (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Mullings remains on injured reserve after his practice window was opened 11 days ago, but he at least has a chance to be activated ahead of Sunday's game against Seattle. The sixth-round rookie has appeared in two games this season, playing just 11 snaps on special teams. |

Chimere Dike Chimere Dike Could lead depleted Titans WR room
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 4:07 PM
Dike (chest) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, while Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) has been ruled out, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The Titans are without Calvin Ridley (fibula) for the rest of the season, and Ayomanor will join him on the sidelines Sunday. Their absences could open the door for Dike and Van Jefferson to see more targets, with Mason Kinsey and James Proche also vying for increased opportunities. Dike posted 163 receiving yards and a touchdown in a two-game span Weeks 7 and 8, but he hasn't exceeded 17 receiving yards in any other game. |

Chig Okonkwo Chig Okonkwo Cleared to face Seahawks
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 3:14 PM
Okonkwo (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Okonkwo was limited in all three of Seattle's practices during the week but has the green light to suit up Sunday. He has 119 receiving yards on 12 targets over the past four games, while rookie fourth-round pick Gunnar Helm has 103 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets during that span. Both Titans tight ends could see substantial involvement Sunday with the team depleted at wide receiver against a Seahawks defense that's allowing a league-high 6.7 receptions per game to tight ends. |

Elic Ayomanor Elic Ayomanor Won't play Sunday
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 12:57 PM
Ayomanor (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: In Ayomanor's absence versus Seattle this weekend, Chimere Dike, Van Jefferson and Mason Kinsey are slated to lead a Titans WR corps that will be without Calvin Ridley (fibula) for the rest of the season. Ayomanor's next chance to see game action will occur Sunday, Nov. 30 against the Jaguars. |

Chig Okonkwo Chig Okonkwo Another limited practice
Thu, Nov 20, 2025, 3:30 PM
Okonkwo (foot) was limited in practice Thursday.
Analysis: Okonkwo managed to play through his foot injury Week 11 without being tagged with an injury designation, so as long as he's able to log at least another limited session Friday, he will have strong odds of being cleared for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. Across 10 regular-season appearances so far, Okonkwo has secured 32 of 42 targets for 337 receiving yards, but he's still looking for his first touchdown of 2025. |

Elic Ayomanor Elic Ayomanor Still not practicing
Thu, Nov 20, 2025, 2:23 PM
Ayomanor (hamstring) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Ayomanor also didn't practice Wednesday, which gives the wideout one more chance to mix into drills before the Titans assign Week 12 injury designations. If Ayomanor is out this weekend against the Seahawks, Chimere Dike, Van Jefferson and Mason Kinsey would be in line to lead a Tennessee wideout corps that will be without Calvin Ridley (fibula) for the rest of the season. |

Chig Okonkwo Chig Okonkwo Logs limited practice Wednesday
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 5:56 PM
Okonkwo (foot) was limited in practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Okonkwo continues to manage a foot issue that limited him at practice last week, but the tight end approached Week 11 action without an injury designation before catching all three of his targets for 56 yards in this past Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Texans. With no reported setbacks in the contest, Okonkwo's listed limitations Wednesday are likely maintenance-related. |

Chimere Dike Chimere Dike Good to go
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 4:16 PM
Dike (chest) was a full participant in practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Dike missed the end of Sunday's 16-13 loss to Houston but is fine for Week 12 against Seattle. With Calvin Ridley (leg) out of the season and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) not practicing, Dike and Van Jefferson may be the top WRs for Tennessee this Sunday. Mason Kinsey and James Proche are the other healthy options on the active roster. |
|
Elic Ayomanor Elic Ayomanor Not practicing
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 2:31 PM
Ayomanor (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: Chimere Dike (chest) is participating, after both he and Ayomanor suffered injuries during the second half of Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Titans. With Calvin Ridley (leg) out for the season, Van Jefferson should have a top-three role even if Ayomanor manages to play this Sunday against a tough Seattle defense. |
|
Chimere Dike Chimere Dike Returns to practice
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 2:29 PM
Dike (chest) returned to practice Wednesday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: Dike was evaluated for a head injury during Sunday's 16-13 loss to Houston, and while he cleared concussion protocol, he missed the rest of the game with a chest injury. A quick return to practice suggests he's on track to play Sunday against the Seahawks, whereas teammate Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday. Fellow Titans wideout Calvin Ridley (leg) is out for the season, leaving Ayomanor, Dike and Van Jefferson as the top three wide receivers. |

James Proche James Proche Signs to active roster
Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 3:44 PM
The Titans signed Proche off the practice squad Tuesday.
Analysis: With Calvin Ridley done for the season due to a fractured fibula, and Chimere Dike (chest) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) dealing with injuries, the Titans needed wideout and returner depth. Proche has 64 career regular-season games of experience. |
