Calvin Ridley Unplayable in All Formats for Week 4 at Baltimore
Tennessee Titans Wide Receiver Calvin Ridley's disappearing act continued against the Giants, as he failed to catch his only target. Through three games, Ridley has received just three targets on the season, which ranks seventh on the team, and has caught two of them for 35 yards. His snap share also dipped to a season-low 33% against the Giants, while fellow receiver Elic Ayomanor's rose to 80%, signaling a changing of the guard at WR3 in Tennessee. Baltimore's secondary has been beatable, giving up 649 passing yards through three weeks, but a favorable or neutral matchup means little for Ridley given his lack of opportunities. Until his role changes dramatically, which appears very unlikely at this point, Ridley should not be remotely considered for fantasy lineups in Week 4.

Carnell Tate a Shaky Flex in Week 4, But the Rookie Continues to Look the Part
Tennessee Titans Wide Receiver Carnell Tate has established himself as the top option in the passing game through three weeks, even if the fantasy production hasn't caught up yet. The rookie leads Tennessee with 20 targets and 123 receiving yards through three games, including career-highs of six catches and 58 yards on nine targets against the Giants last week. He's commanded roughly a quarter of Tennessee's targets and around 40% of the team's air yards, while seeing the most snaps of any Titans wideout. Tate has consistently shown the ability to separate on his routes, something that also stood out on film against New York, where he repeatedly created openings only for Cam Ward to miss opportunities to get him the football. Baltimore has allowed 216.3 passing yards per game, 17th in the league, so the matchup on paper is not one to avoid. However, the offensive environment and quarterback play remain a major problem for the Ohio State product. Tate is the one Titans pass-catcher fantasy managers can consider starting as a WR3/flex, but until Ward starts connecting with him more consistently, even that recommendation comes with some risk.

Carnell Tate a Risky Start Amid Quarterback Concerns in Tennessee
The fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Carnell Tate has gotten off to a slow start to his NFL career. Across three games, the 21-year-old has recorded 13 catches for 123 yards on 20 targets. On the bright side, Tate currently leads Tennessee in targets and is coming off his most productive performance in Week 3, hauling in six catches for 58 yards against the New York Giants. However, the Titans' passing game and offense as a whole remain a major question mark in quarterback Cam Ward's second season as the starter. Three games in, Ward is averaging just 5.7 yards per pass attempt, and the Titans as a team are averaging just 12.3 points per game. Without significant improvements in his offensive environment, Tate remains a risky start on a weekly basis for fantasy managers.

Wan'Dale Robinson Re-Emerging as a PPR Waiver-Wire Target
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson had his best game of the 2026 season in his team's Week 3 loss to the New York Giants, recording seven catches for 57 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. The 25-year-old had gotten off to a slow start to his first season in Tennessee, hauling in just six catches on seven targets across the Titans' first two games. However, Robinson has proven he can be a target and reception machine in the past, recording at least 90 catches and 140 targets in both 2024 and 2025. Particularly with Titans quarterback Cam Ward struggling, Robinson should continue to see plenty of work in the short and intermediate areas of the field. Tennessee's overall offensive struggles limit Robinson's upside, but he profiles as a high-floor PPR wide receiver for fantasy managers to target on the waiver wire.

Chimere Dike Facing Uphill Battle for Playing Time in Tennessee
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike flashed upside during his rookie season in 2025, finishing the year with 48 catches for 423 yards and four touchdowns on 74 targets across 17 games. However, the 24-year-old's role in his team's passing game has taken a backseat so far in 2026, as he's recorded just one catch for seven yards on one target through two contests. The Titans added significant talent to their wide receiver room over the offseason, selecting Carnell Tate with the fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and signing veteran slot receiver Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency. As a result, Dike has played just six total snaps on offense so far this season. At this point, fantasy managers are safe to leave Dike on the waiver wire.

Elic Ayomanor Emerging as Big-Play Threat for Titans
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor will look to continue to be a big-play threat for the Titans in Sunday's game against the New York Giants. Ayomanor followed up his Week 1 touchdown by making the biggest play of Tennessee's loss to Philadelphia. Ayomanor caught two of three targets for 69 yards, including a 41-yard reception in the fourth quarter that featured a Sportscenter top-10 hurdle. Despite playing only 52.8% of the offensive snaps and ranking fourth on the team in targets, the second-year receiver leads Tennessee with 80 receiving yards through two games. That limited volume makes his production difficult to sustain, but Ayomanor has made the most of his opportunities thus far. New York surrendered 327 passing yards to Matthew Stafford and a plethora of explosive plays to receiver Davante Adams last Monday, so Ayomanor could have more chances to showcase his big-play ability sooner rather than later. He remains behind Carnell Tate, Wan'Dale Robinson, and Calvin Ridley in Tennessee's crowded receiver room, so the floor is extremely low. Still, Ayomanor is an intriguing deep-league dart throw against the Giants and could earn a more consistent fantasy role if he can usurp one of the aforementioned wideouts in snap count.

Carnell Tate Remains in FLEX/WR3 Consideration Against Banged-Up Giants Secondary
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Carnell Tate continues to see opportunities early in his rookie season, catching three of five targets for 27 yards against Philadelphia after posting four receptions for 38 yards in Week 1. The fourth overall pick has a modest seven catches for 65 yards through his first two NFL games, but his 11 targets lead Tennessee's pass catchers. Tate has not yet delivered the splash plays fantasy managers are looking for, but Sunday's matchup provides a promising opportunity. The Giants were just shredded by Matthew Stafford for 327 yards and four touchdowns last week, with wide receiver Davante Adams finishing with eight catches for 195 yards and two scores. New York is also extremely thin in the secondary at the moment - cornerback Deonte Banks and safety Tyler Nubin are questionable for Sunday's matchup, along with three other defensive backs on injured reserve. Tate's volume and production have not reached automatic-start territory, but his talent and favorable matchup provide an exciting opportunity for him to pop as a WR3/FLEX in Week 3, finally.

Wan'Dale Robinson Looks to Get Revenge Against Former Team in Week 3
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson returns to MetLife Stadium on Sunday after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Giants. Robinson opened his Titans career with five catches for 38 yards against the Jets, but his role diminished against Philadelphia, when he caught his only target for nine yards. He now has only six receptions for 47 yards through two games, despite entering the season as one of quarterback Cam Ward's expected top targets. The revenge-game narrative is fun, but the matchup gives fantasy managers a more legitimate reason to be optimistic. New York has allowed over 500 passing yards and six passing touchdowns through two games, including Davante Adams' 195-yard, two-touchdown performance last Monday night. Robinson's one-target showing in Week 2 is concerning, so he is not a must-start, but he remains a reasonable PPR FLEX with bounce-back potential against his former team.

Wan'Dale Robinson's Target Volume Has Dried Up
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson went from six targets in the opener to one against Philadelphia, and that is a rough drop for a player whose fantasy value has always depended on volume. Robinson caught five passes for 38 yards in Week 1, then finished with one catch for nine yards last Sunday. He has six receptions for 47 yards through two games and has yet to score. Rookie Carnell Tate already leads Tennessee with 11 targets, while Robinson sits at seven. That is a very different setup from last season, when Robinson drew 140 targets with the Giants and turned them into 92 catches for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns. Tennessee gave him a four-year, $78 million deal in March, so there is still a substantial investment here. The early usage just has not matched it. Robinson checks in at WR57 in RotoBaller's latest Week 3 rankings. Until Cam Ward starts looking his way more often, Robinson is difficult to trust outside of deeper PPR leagues.

Carnell Tate Difficult to Trust Amid Slow Start to 2026
The fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Carnell Tate has had a frustrating start to his NFL career. Across two games, the 21-year-old has recorded just seven catches for 65 yards on 11 targets. On the bright side, Tate leads Tennessee wide receivers in snaps and is the only player on the team who has reached double-digit targets. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, the Titans' passing game and offense as a whole remain rough in quarterback Cam Ward's second season at the helm. Through two weeks, Tennessee ranks 30th in the NFL in passing yards, and Ward has thrown just one touchdown pass. Better days could be ahead for Tate as both he and Ward continue to get reps at the NFL level. Still, in the short term, Tate is difficult for fantasy managers to trust.

Wan'Dale Robinson Projects to be the Safest Titans Receiver in Week 2
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson will face off against the intimidating Philadelphia Eagles secondary in Week 2. The former Giant was immediately involved in his first game with the team, catching five of six targets for 38 yards against the Jets. Robinson played 82% of the offensive snaps and tied rookie Carnell Tate for the team lead in targets. The production wasn't spectacular, but Robinson's game is built on short-area targets and volume, giving young quarterback Ward a safety-valve outlet. Philadelphia presents an extremely difficult matchup, especially with All-Pro nickel corner Cooper DeJean likely checking Robinson in the slot for this one. Robinson's short-area role should keep him involved even if Ward is forced to get the ball out quickly. He's usable as a low-end WR3/flex in PPR formats this week, with a safer floor than most of Tennessee's other receivers.

Carnell Tate Faces Tough Eagles Secondary in Week 2 Showdown
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Carnell Tate takes on an extremely talented Philadelphia Eagles secondary in Week 2. The rookie from Ohio State didn't waste much time establishing himself as a major part of the offense. In his first-ever game last week, Tate tied for the team lead in targets and receiving yards. Unfortunately, that amounted to only four catches for 38 yards, but it is still promising that the No. 4 overall pick seems to have established himself as a core part of this pass-catching group. Tate also played a team-high 88% of Tennessee's offensive snaps among receivers in Week 1. Philadelphia has one of the best secondaries in the NFL, led by shutdown corners Quinyon Mitchell and Riq Woolen, which will be an incredibly tough test for the rookie. Tate's combination of playing time and targets is encouraging, but fantasy managers should look elsewhere this week given the state of the offense and the matchup. He checks in as a low-end WR3 in Week 2.

Elic Ayomanor Facing Uncertain Role in Questionable Titans Passing Game
A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor recorded 41 catches for 515 yards and four touchdowns on 89 targets across 16 games as a rookie. However, Ayomanor's role in the Titans' offense is expected to shrink in 2026 following the team's offseason additions of rookie wideout Carnell Tate and veteran slot receiver Wan'Dale Robinson. Ayomanor recorded his first touchdown of 2026 in Tennessee's Week 1 loss to the New York Jets, but the touchdown grab was his lone reception on three targets. Ayomanor also recorded the fourth-most snaps among Titans wideouts, behind Tate, Robinson, and veteran Calvin Ridley. To make matters worse, the overall health of the Titans' passing game remains a major concern in quarterback Cam Ward's second season as the starter. Between the uncertain role and questionable quarterback play, Ayomanor should likely remain off the radar of fantasy managers in redraft leagues.

Chimere Dike Could be Stuck in More of a Special Teams Role
The Tennessee Titans' offseason additions at the wide receiver position with Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency and rookie Carnell Tate with the fourth overall pick have made it difficult for second-year pass-catcher Chimere Dike to have a big role on offense in 2026. That was confirmed in the team's Week 1 season-opening loss to the New York Jets on Sunday, with Dike playing just four offensive snaps (8%) while catching one pass for a seven-yard gain. The 24-year-old returned three kickoffs for 62 yards and a punt for a loss of five yards, so he was mostly involved on special teams. It did not help matters that Dike lost a fumble on one of his kickoff returns. Dike was behind Tate, Robinson, Calvin Ridley, and Elic Ayomanor to start his sophomore season, which is bad news for fantasy managers who have him rostered in dynasty/keeper leagues. The Titans had limited options in the passing attack last year, which thrust Dike into a bigger role than expected. He caught 48 of 74 targets for 423 yards and four touchdowns in 17 games. Dike will likely need a couple of injuries ahead of him to make him even slightly interesting in fantasy again.

Wan'Dale Robinson Is a Priority PPR Add for Week 2
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson gave fantasy managers a familiar stat line in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the New York Jets, catching five of six targets for 38 yards. It wasn't a big day, but the six targets tied rookie Carnell Tate for the team lead while Cam Ward managed only 140 passing yards. Robinson's value has never depended on piling up deep shots. He caught 92 passes for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns with the Giants last season, then signed with Tennessee and reunited with offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. The Titans also list him as a starter, so there is no role question to solve here. What needs to improve is the offense around him. Tennessee produced only 195 total yards in the opener, and Robinson averaged 7.6 yards per catch. That can make him frustrating outside of full-PPR formats. Still, five catches in a poor offensive showing are enough to keep the floor interesting. If Robinson was left on the waiver wire, he should be a priority add in PPR leagues ahead of Week 2 against Philadelphia, with more value as a steady depth option than a high-ceiling play.
