Dion Lewis May See A Lesser Role In Week 15

Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis could see a diminished role in the offense in Week 15 against the New York Giants following Derrick Henry's breakout performance last week.

Marcus Mariota Remains A QB2 In Week 15

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota has been very inconsistent from a fantasy perspective this season, which is a scary thought for fantasy owners in the playoffs.

Titans Need An Encore Performance From Derrick Henry

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry exploded last week for a team record 238 yards and four touchdowns against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Trusting Derrick Henry (or Not) in Fantasy Playoffs

That's the stuff of […]

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota was not asked to do much in the team's dominant win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football.
