Much-needed positive reports for first-year wide receiver Treylon Burks after he missed minicamp because of asthma and conditioning issues.

Related Players: Ryan Tannehill, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Robert Woods

Any news is good news after Burks was unable to see the field during rookie minicamp, partially due to issues with inhaler-timing. It seems he now has that under control and will have a chance to carve out a role in an offense in desperate need to fill some target share holes. Currently ranked as our WR49, so he has plenty of room to make up.

Titans WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

His return is big, especially if Julio Jones is not activated from the COVID list.

Titans designated Julio Jones to return to practice from IR.

The Titans take on the Jags this week but it's unclear if Jones will be activated for Week 14. Jones last played in Week 7. A Jones return likely pushes down Westbrook, Rogers and Hollister on the depth chart.

The Titans have placed DB Chris Jackson and WR Marcus Johnson on Injured Reserve.

It’s Johnson’s second stint on IR, so he’s out for the season, the tweet said. The team signed Tate to the practice squad and continue to get pounded with injuries to their skill players.

Titans wide receiver Marcus Johnson came into the game with four catches for 60 yards on the season, but Julio Jones‘ trip to the injured reserve list opened up an opportunity for him to make an impact. Johnson turned a short slant into a 50-yard gain to set up a field goal in the first quarter and finished the day with five catches for 100 yards to lead the Titans in both categories.

Head coach Mike Vrabel said it was a “huge” performance and “what we needed to see” from a receiver who has flashed in practices without making a big impression in games.

Jones is going to miss two more games at least so Johnson has a chance to continue to make his mark in that span. With no Derrick Henry, the Titans will likely throw the ball more than they have with Henry in the lineup, so Johnson could have some fantasy value at least for the short term. Both Westbrook-Ikhine and Rogers have flashed fantasy numbers this year so it remains to see if Johnson will take over the WR2 role. Johnson, himself, flashed for the Colts last year, including a 5-108-0 game but mostly fizzled out after that.

Titans WR Julio Jones (hamstring) will miss Week 8 against the Indianapolis Colts.

It was fun to have Julio back for one week. It will be a mixed bag of receivers behind A.J. Brown against the Colts.

Titans WR Julio Jones (hamstring) and RB Jeremy McNichols (ankle) are questionable for Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Related Players: Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Darrynton Evans

Jones has already said he is playing, just with precautions. McNichols was supposed to have a role Week 6 prior to injuring his ankle pregame. Evans was designated to return two weeks ago and should have a role in the backfield if active.

Titans WR Chester Rogers (groin) will miss Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

With NWI healthy Week 6, he out-snapped and out-produced Rogers. When healthy, he is a WR5 at best.

Titans WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (hamstring) is questionable for Week 5 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

NWI was expected to step up Week 4 with Julio Jones and A.J. Brown out. Now he is just trying to play after Week 4's letdown.

Titans WRs Julio Jones (hamstring) and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday according to Jim Wyatt of the Tennessee Titans. WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) was limited.

The receiver position for Tennessee is a mess and difficult to put much faith in until Friday's injury report.
