Team news: Tennessee Titans

Former Seahawks legend Tyler Lockett is signing with the Titans on a 1-year, $4M deal with a chance to get to $6M.

Solid signing to add some more stability to the WR room ahead of the (presumptive) selection of QB Cam Ward at No. 1. This doesn't at all preclude the team from grabbing some more pieces through the Draft, and Lockett is more of a role player than one who the offense runs through at this point of his career, so he should be considered a deep WR5 flier in fantasy land.

Seahawks are releasing an all-time franchise great, wide receiver Tyler Lockett, who piled up 8,594 receiving yards and 61 touchdowns across 10 seasons in Seattle. The Seahawks are opting to release Lockett rather than pay him his $17 million salary for this season, including a $5.3 million roster bonus due March 16.

It doesn't seem like Lockett is done with the NFL, but we'll have to wait and see what kind of opportunity he'll find as a potential WR3 on another team. JSN gets a nice bump here, particularly with subsequent news that Metcalf has requested a trade.

The Titans ruled running back Tony Pollard out for Week 17 against the Jaguars with an ankle injury and an illness.

Originally listed as questionable, Pollard now will not travel with the team. This sets Tyjae Spears up for a bigger workload Sunday in a very favorable matchup against the Jaguars leaky run defense. Spears can be viewed as a RB2 with RB1 upside.

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.

The Steelers ruled out WR George Pickens and QB Justin Fields for Saturday vs. Baltimore.

OLB T.J. Watt (ankle) is off the injury report and will play.

We really can't trust any of these ancillary pieces with Pickens missing, and it comes as a huge downgrade to Russell Wilson and the offense, in general.

Steelers WR George Pickens was listed as did not practice today, TJ Watt was listed as limited.

We really can't be trusting any of these ancillary pieces of Pickens misses, and it would come as a huge downgrade to Russell Wilson and the offense, in general. This is a decent matchup for Pickens, so we'll keep an eye on whether or not he can clear ahead of kickoff.

The Titans pulled Will Levis on Sunday and coach Brian Callahan said he's going to use the next few days to decide who his starting QB will be.

Levis threw three INTs in the game and was 8 for 12 for 89 yards. It was a great matchup for Levis who was going against a Bengals defense that hasn't always performed well this season. Rudolph came in and threw for 209 and two TDs as the Titans tried to rally to a win.

Steelers ruled out wide receiver George Pickens for Sunday’s game against the Eagles due to his hamstring injury.

We really can't trust any of the Pittsburgh WR options here in the first round of the playoffs, particularly against the Eagles' defense. Russell Wilson can also comfortably be faded in all formats.

Titans HC Brian Callahan said WR Treylon Burks underwent surgery on his torn ACL and he will be out for the season.

Burks never could find a holding in the starting lineup, with or without DeAndre Hopkins on the team. It's been a disappointing first three seasons for the former first-round rookie, and it wouldn't be a surprise if he looks for a fresh start as we head into 2025.

Seahawks WRs DK Metcalf (shoulder) and Tyler Lockett (knee) are off the injury report and good to go for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets.

Great news for Geno Smith's floor in Week 13. For the receivers, the Jets should be a tough matchup for them, making Metcalf and JSN lower-end WR2s.
