Chig Okonkwo Returns to Friday's Practice
Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo (foot) was able to return to the practice field on Friday, giving him a chance to play this Sunday when the team takes on the visiting Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN. Okonkwo was limited in Wednesday's practice with his foot injury, but he was then downgraded to out on Thursday, raising questions about his availability this weekend. It's unclear what the 26-year-old's official status is for Week 9, but he's likely to be questionable to play. If Okonkwo is out or limited at all against the Bolts, it would open the door for rookie Gunnar Helm to be a legitimate streaming option for fantasy managers at the tight end position. Okonkwo has 27 catches on the year for 271 yards and no touchdowns, which has made him a low-end TE2 option, at best.
