Matthew Wright made both of his field-goal attempts in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact: Wright hit field goals from 35 and 38 yards out in the season finale. The veteran kicker wound up hitting 15 of his 16 field-goal attempts while kicking for the Titans, 49ers, and Chiefs in 2024.

Chig Okonkwo was not targeted in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact: Okonkwo popped up on the injury report mid-week with an abdominal injury but he was able to suit up for the season finale. That being said, he aggravated his abdominal injury on punt coverage and did not return. Okonkwo will play the final year of his four-year contract in 2025 after catching 52 passes for 479 yards and two touchdowns.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught four of his seven targets for 50 yards in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact: Westbrook-Ikhine led the team in targets in the loss. The veteran wideout stepped up for the Titans after they traded DeAndre Hopkins at the trade deadline, catching a career-high nine touchdowns. Westbrook-Ikhine is now set to become an unrestricted free-agent this offseason.

Calvin Ridley caught three of his five targets for 76 yards in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18. He also lost three yards on two rushes in the contest.
Fantasy Impact: Ridley led the Titans in receiving in the season finale. He finishes the season with 1,017 receiving yards and four touchdowns, his second-straight 1,000-yard season. Ridley should resume his role as the Titans' No. 1 receiver heading into the 2025 season.

Julius Chestnut carried the ball twice for 11 yards in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact: Chestnut operated as the Titans' backup running back with Tyjae Spears (concussion) inactive. The veteran tailback finishes his 2024 season with 22 carries for 102 yards while adding 11 yards on two catches across 16 games.

Tony Pollard carried the ball 22 times for 62 yards in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact: Pollard dealt with an illness and an ankle injury throughout the week but was able to suit up for the season finale. He finishes the 2024 season with 1,079 rushing yards, his third-straight 1,000-yard season. Pollard is under contract for two more seasons and should be back with Tyjae Spears to form a one-two punch in the Tennessee backfield in 2025.

Mason Rudolph completed seven of his nine passes for 70 yards and added a five-yard rush in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact: Rudolph and Will Levis rotated snaps in the season finale, although Levis got more work as he attempted 17 passes. With the Titans' loss, they locked up the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL draft and could be looking at selecting a quarterback. Rudolph is slated to become an unrestricted free-agent this offseason but he is likely to land somewhere as a backup after turning in a solid season for the Titans.

Will Levis completed nine of his 17 passes for 175 yards and a touchdown while adding eight rushing yards and a lost fumble in a 23-14 loss to the Texans in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact: Levis and Mason Rudolph rotated in the team’s final game of the season. With the loss, the Titans secured the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft and are likely going to select a quarterback, so this could have been Levis’ last game as a Titan.

Fantasy Impact: Folk will miss his third straight game to end the season. Matthew Wright will handle the kicking duties against Houston in Week 18.

Tyler Boyd (foot) is inactive for Week 18's game against the Houston Texans. (Source: Jim Wyatt on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: The Titans will be without Boyd on Sunday as he continues to tend to a foot injury. That will lead to slightly more work for Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, although he doesn't project to be a strong fantasy option with Will Levis set to start for the Titans. Boyd is set to become a free agent after this season and will need a new contract if he is going to stay with the Titans for the 2025 season.

Tyjae Spears (concussion) won't play in Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. (Source: Jim Wyatt on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Spears is going to miss Sunday's game due to a concussion. The Titans have been eliminated from playoff contention, so that means that we have seen the last of the 23-year old until the 2025 NFL season. Fantasy managers should keep close tabs on what changes Tennessee makes to their offense over the course of the offseason to see if Spears will have a better chance at success next season.

David Long Jr. failed his physical and was waived by the Titans. (Source: Buck Reising on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Long was waived by the Lions and claimed off waivers by the Titans before he failed his physical. He has appeared in 13 games this season with the Dolphins and Lions.

Brayden Narveson missed his lone field-goal attempt and hit both of his extra points in a 38-30 loss to the Colts in Week 16.
Fantasy Impact: Narveson handled kicking duties with Nick Folk (abdomen) unable to play due to an abdominal injury. Narveson would presumably remain in place as the Titans' kicker in Week 17 against the Jaguars if Folk's injury lingers for another week.

Josh Whyle caught all five of his targets for 37 yards and one touchdown in the Titans' 37-27 Week 15 loss to the Bengals.
Fantasy Impact: Whyle benefited from the Titans switching to backup quarterback Mason Rudolph behind center, scoring his first touchdown of the season in the loss. The tight end can be left off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 16 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Titans head coach Brian Callahan stated that he is hopeful to have Roger McCreary (shoulder) back for Week 15. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: McCreary did not suit up in the loss to Jacksonville Sunday. If he is able to suit up against the Bengals in Week 15, he will have missed just one-game due to a shoulder injury.

Titans WR Jha'Quan Jackson is officially inactive for Week 14.
Fantasy Impact: Jackson has only appeared in five games this season and has just one reception on the season. Fantasy managers can safely leave him on the waiver wire.
Treylon Burks underwent surgery to repair an ACL injury and will be out for the remainder of the 2024 season. (Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Burks hasn't played since October due to a knee injury, and he recently underwent a procedure on his ACL that will leave him sidelined for the remainder of the season. This doesn't carry many implications for fantasy purposes, as he was already a non-factor on Tennessee's offense.

The Titans are placing L'Jarius Sneed on injured reserve. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Sneed was initially said to have a quad bruise then later diagnosed as a strain. The strain is severe enough to where the best option is for him to get rest. He'll miss at least the next four games. Titans coach Brian Callahan didn't rule out a return at some point this year.

The Titans D/ST allowed 23 points, 246 passing yards, and 82 rushing yards in the loss to the Vikings.
Fantasy Impact: The Titans' defense struggled to slow down Sam Darnold and the Vikings' passing attack. They did register two sacks and one fumble recovery in the loss. The Titans will take on the Texans in Week 12.
