BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 13% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: After featuring in spot plays all the way back in Week 2, rookie QB Malik Willis took the field as a starter for the Titans in the W8-W9 span due to veteran Ryan Tannehill being out injured. The results weren't any good – at all. Willis topped at 7.2 FP in his second start and barring a monster surprise he'll finish the season with 12 completions on 30 pass attempts for 141 yards and one interception. No bueno.
Of course, Tennessee lost no time in throwing Ryan Tannehill back to the gridiron the minute he was ready and fit to play this past Sunday. The comeback was great with Tannehill performing to QB1 levels of play and completing his best of the season to date. Tannehill attempted a season-high 36 passes of which 19 ended in completions. He threw two touchdowns and rushed the rock twice for 12 yards on the ground. The 19.4 FP figure is now his highest of 2022 after putting up 19.3 in Week 1.
Tannehill had an absolute stinker in Week 2 before getting off the field (11-of-20, 117 yards, 2 INTs, 2.9 FP...) and then mimicked that with another putrid 3.9-FP outing back in Week 7. Other than that though, Tannehill has been his usual mediocre-to-good self finishing three weeks inside the top-10 quarterbacks and two more as the QB20/QB22 overall with a season-average of 12.9 FPPG (16.7 leaving out the mega-stinkers).
It's hard to see Tannehill putting up season-high numbers ROS as he just did on Sunday, but one can definitely see the veteran keeping up some 14-to-18 FPPG for the remainder of the year. Tennessee already went on a bye a month ago so at least you know you'll be getting production on a weekly basis going forward without having to worry about streaming the streamer.
