Chigoziem Okonkwo Still Not A Great Option Against Jets

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo will play the New York Jets this Sunday in Week 2. The third-year player started off his 2024 campaign with a bang, snagging a picturesque 17-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Will Levis against Chicago. However his only other reception in the game went for -2 yards, as the Titans […]


DeAndre Hopkins Should Be Left On Benches In Week 2

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins faces the New York Jets and their stingy secondary in Week 2 of NFL action. The veteran receiver has been taken off the injury report completely after playing limited snaps against Chicago due to an MCL injury. That is wonderful news for both Hopkins managers and the Titans offense […]


Calvin Ridley Only A WR3 For Tough Matchup Against Jets

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley is up against the New York Jets in Week 2 of NFL action this Sunday. While not much went right for the Titans on offense in Week 1, Ridley led the team in targets and receiving yards, which should give fantasy managers some hope moving forward. Quarterback Will Levis […]


Tony Pollard A Borderline RB2 Vs. Jets

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard will face the New York Jets this Sunday for the team's home opener. The former Cowboys was a lone bright spot for the Titans offense against Chicago last week, producing 94 yards from scrimmage and touchdown. He was heavily featured on the ground with sixteen total carries compared to […]


Tyjae Spears A Sneaky Play In Week 2

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears takes on the New York Jets in Week 2 action on Sunday. Spears played second-fiddle to Tony Pollard in Week 1, logging eight touches (32 yards) to Pollard's 19 (94 yards). This was quite surprising given Titans OC Nick Holz's recent comments that the backfield would be split 50/50. […]


Will Levis Not A Fantasy Option Vs. Jets

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis faces the New York Jets in the team's home opener on Sunday. Week 1 was quite a struggle for Levis, who only threw for 127 yards and virtually gave the game away with two fourth quarter interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown. While the Bears defense is […]


DeAndre Hopkins Held To One Catch In Loss

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught his lone target for eight yards in the 24-17 loss to the Bears on Sunday. The veteran receiver was questionable leading up to the game with an MCL injury but suited up anyway. However, Hopkins seemed to play more of a decoy role, logging only 27% of the […]


Chigoziem Okonkwo Catches Touchdown In Loss To Bears

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo caught both his targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in the loss to Chicago. Quarterback Will Levis could not get the passing game going most of the game, which led to down weeks for all Titans' pass catchers. Okonkwo was able to bail out fantasy managers with his […]


Tony Pollard Shines In First Action As A Titan

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard rushed 16 times for 82 yards and a score, adding three receptions for 12 yards in the loss to Chicago. Pollard started the game as the Titans top back and out-carried Tyjae Spears by a surprisingly large margin, 16-4, right after the Titans coaching staff made a point that […]


Calvin Ridley Leads Titans In Receiving Against Bears

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley caught three of seven targets for 50 yards in a 24-17 loss at Chicago. On a day where the Titans struggled to move the ball through the air, Ridley was still able to have a decent afternoon with a 22% target share and almost 40% of the Titans passing […]


Will Levis Collapses In Defeat At Bears

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis went 19-for-32 for 127 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in a 24-17 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday. Levis also rushed nine times for 36 yards and lost a fumble. It was a forgettable start to Year 2 for the quarterback, who was constantly under pressure and indecisive […]


Nick Folk Better Left Out Of Lineups For Week 1

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk will start the season in Chicago taking on the Bears in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season. Folk was the #19 kicker last year but the ranking wasn't emblematic of his effectiveness. It was a career-year for the 39-year old veteran, who finished first in the NFL with a […]


Titans D/ST Should Be Left On Waivers In Week 1

The Tennessee Titans defense will face 2024 No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears in Week 1. This unit was at or below average in most statistical categories last season, leading to a No. 26 finish among fantasy defenses. The Titans signed some big names for their secondary, including star cornerbacks L'Jarius […]


Chigoziem Okonkwo Not On Fantasy Radar For Week 1

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo takes on the Chicago Bears in an NFL opening weekend matchup. The former fourth-round pick was a popular breakout candidate last season, and while that didn't pan out due to the ineffectiveness of Ryan Tannehill at QB, Okonkwo was much more productive when Levis took over as the starting […]


Calvin Ridley On WR2 Radar In First Game As A Titan

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley heads into a Week 1 matchup against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The veteran wideout revitalized his career last season in Jacksonville with over 1,000 yards and eight touchdowns, helping him secure a large payday from the Titans this spring. With DeAndre Hopkins now 32 and in his last […]


Tony Pollard Faces Tough Test In Week 1 At Chicago

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard heads to Chicago to face the Bears on NFL opening weekend. Pollard came to Nashville by way of Dallas on a 3-year, $21.75M deal this offseason after an underwhelming year as the Cowboys lead back. He now takes over a Titans backfield that is without superstar workhorse Derrick Henry, […]


Tyjae Spears A Lowly Flex Option On Opening Weekend Vs. Bears

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears takes on the stout Chicago Bears defense in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season. Spears played second-fiddle to future Hall-of-Famer Derrick Henry last season who bolted for the Ravens in free agency. Even with Henry receiving the lion's share of the work, Spears was able to snag 52 […]


Will Levis Only An Option In Two-QB Leagues Against Chicago

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis travels to Chicago to take on Caleb Williams and the Bears in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season. The Kentucky product started eight games last season due to the inept play of Ryan Tannehill and showed major flashes throughout his short stint as the lead signal caller in Nashville, […]


Puka Nacua - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Wide Receiver Fantasy Football Avoids - Overvalued ADPs Include Marvin Harrison Jr., Puka Nacua, more

The fantasy football season is imminent, and for the sickos, that means diving into as much research and data as you can get your hands on over the next few weeks. Sometimes too much data can have a reverse effect on managers and lead to overthinking, but here at RotoBaller, we like to provide you […]


Calvin Ridley Catches Two Passes For 39 Yards In Final Preseason Showing

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley caught two passes for 39 yards on three targets in a 30-27 win against New Orleans on Sunday. The day was highlighted by a 33-yard gain in the first quarter, where quarterback Will Levis showed great patience in the pocket before dealing a strike to Ridley. It was a […]


Bryce Oliver Ends Preseason With 52 Yards, Two Scores

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Bryce Oliver hauled in three passes for 52 yards and two touchdowns in the last preseason win over New Orleans. It was a mini breakout for the undrafted pass-catcher out of Youngstown State, who was having a quiet game until quarterback Malik Willis started looking his way in the fourth […]


Malik Willis Throws Two Touchdowns In Last Preseason Game

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis only threw four total passes in a preseason week 3 win over New Orleans, but two of them went for touchdowns. The third-year QB was 3-4 on the day for 51 yards including the game winning score to rookie receiver Bryce Oliver, threading the ball in a tight window for […]


Tyjae Spears - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Fantasy Football Committee Running Backs to Target in 2024

The Zero RB strategy is all the rage these days, and to effectively pull this off, targeting backs on high-powered offenses usually has a good chance of success. It's not always that simple, though. Other factors such as offensive line strength, scheme, fit, coaching, luck, etc. also play a factor and are important considerations when […]


John Calipari - College Basketball Head Coach, NCAAB Picks, March Madness

Men's College Basketball: Ranking The Top-10 Coaching Hires For The 2024-25 Season

While the 2023-24 college basketball offseason officially ended a little over a month ago, the offseason drama doesn't rest for anyone. The Rothstein-ism "We sleep in May" may apply to the fans and players participating in the sport, but it certainly does not apply to countless athletic directors across the country who have had to […]

Top Head Coaching Candidates for Kentucky Men's Basketball - 2024 NCAA Basketball

The college basketball offseason has officially begun. The UConn Huskies were crowned National Champions on Monday, completing their repeat title quest which had not been done since 2006-07. Hundreds of players have already thrown their names in the portal and most head coaching vacancies have been filled to get a head-start on roster building. However, […]


Final Four Power Rankings and Preview

The Final Four is set to commence in Phoenix, Arizona this coming Saturday, with these four spectacular teams fighting to reach the pinnacle of college basketball: UConn, Alabama, Purdue, and NC State. The narratives we have in this final weekend are nothing short of incredible, highlighted by the 11-seed NC State Wolfpack who were 1 […]


Mark Sears - CBB DFS Picks, NCAA Daily College Fantasy Basketball

Ranking the Top-10 Players in the Men's NCAA Tournament Final Four

There's only one week left in the college basketball season, but the three most important games of the year have yet to tip off. This year's tournament hasn't necessarily been the most exhilarating in terms of buzzer beaters and massive upsets, but the incredible ride NC State has taken to the Final Four is one […]


March Madness Power Rankings: Where Does Each Sweet 16 Team Stand?

And then there were 16. The first two rounds of the 2024 NCAA Tournament are in the books, which means we no longer have virtually unlimited high-stakes basketball for an entire weekend. That is a sad realization, but the tournament is just starting to heat up. All No. 1 and No. 2 seeds advanced to […]

NCAA March Madness Day 2: Recap, Reaction, and Takeaways

And that's a wrap on Round 1 of the 2024 NCAA tournament. It's the last day of the year we get nonstop college basketball action for over twelve straight hours. Some of you might think seven hours of commercial-free football is the greatest thing on earth, and I'd have to politely disagree. An entire half-day […]


Dalton Knecht - CBB DFS Picks, NCAA Daily College Fantasy Basketball

NCAA March Madness Day 1: Recap, Reactions, and Takeaways

One of the best days of the year is in the books. There's always a little sadness to it after that final buzzer sounds on the nightcap, but then you remember that you're going to wake up and run it back all over again and elation once again washes over you. No? Okay, maybe that's […]
