Titans TE Delanie Walker says thumb is 'tender but improving'

Early in practice, Titans tight end Delanie Walker bobbled and dropped a Mariota pass, the kind that he usually hauls in with ease. I asked him if his injured thumb — he needed 12 stitches to close a cut earlier this month — was causing him any problems. He said the thumb is still tender but improving. Walker said he’ll test the thumb Sunday before a decision is made on whether he plays against the Rams.

Fantasy Impact: 

Last year, Walker finished #9 in standard formats and #8 in PPR leagues even though he missed a game and a half in the middle of the season due to a concussion. He was #12 and #11, respectively, in 2013. In his last 22 games with the Titans, he has averaged 11.9 PPG in PPR formats, which would have been enough for a #6 finish last season. In Marcus Mariota, he should get an upgrade at quarterback and figures to remain a big part of the team’s passing attack. We're not too worried about the thumb injury, but it's something to monitor as the offseason draws to a close.

The Titans were without top tight end Delanie Walker (hand injury) on Friday in Atlanta, but that didn’t stop the rest of the team’s tight ends from shining.

Tight end Chase Coffman led the Titans with four catches for 58 yards, Phillip Supernaw added three catches for 43 yards and Anthony Fasano had two catches for 13 yards. Combined, the tight ends accounted for nine catches for 114 yards.

“If I was asked a question of what position groups that I thought did a nice job last night, tight ends was one of those,” Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt said. “I thought they were productive. They did a nice job, made some big plays. They blocked effectively at times, they were guilty of a couple of those missed (blocking identifications) that we had offensively, but as a group, they played well.

Titans TE Delanie Walker 'not concerned' about thumb injury

The Titans are hoping a thumb injury suffered by tight end Delanie Walker during Thursday’s practice won’t keep him out for long.

Walker said he needed 12 stitches to close the cut, and the base of his left thumb was bandaged and taped in the locker room. The injury occurred when Da’Norris Searcy broke up a Marcus Mariota pass intended for Walker over the middle.

“I’m not concerned about it,” Walker said. “The trainers just wanted me to be smart about it, so I just went inside and made sure everything was okay with it.”

Titans Ken Whisenhunt said his preliminary estimation was that the injury wasn’t too serious and wouldn’t keep Walker out of training camp for long. He said if Walker had to sit out a couple days, he might benefit from some rest.

Fantasy Impact: 

It doesn't sound like this is a major concern, and hopefully it stays that way since Walker is one of our favorite sleepers in 2015. Last year, he finished #9 in standard formats and #8 in PPR leagues even though he missed a game and a half in the middle of the season due to a concussion. He was #12 and #11, respectively, in 2013. In his last 22 games with the Titans, he has averaged 11.9 PPG in PPR formats, which would have been enough for a #6 finish last season. In Marcus Mariota, he should get an upgrade at quarterback and figures to remain a big part of the team’s passing attack, such that it is.

For a quarterback, 7-on-7 work is supposed to be easier than 11-on-11 drills. There is no pass rush. There is no crowd to see over or around. Receivers should win matchups and provide open targets.

But in the Tennessee Titans' Monday night practice it didn't work that way for Marcus Mariota during red zone work.

In a 7-on-7 drill, he hit Bishop Sankey and then missed on three throws in a row: He missed Hakeem Nicks in the end zone, threw out of bounds to a well-covered Kendall Wright in the back right corner of the end zone and threw a bad pass I think was aimed for Harry Douglas but might have been intended for Delanie Walker behind him.

But in the full team red zone period that followed, Mariota's fuse got re-lit.

A dump off to tight end Craig Stevens created a chance for him to bounce into the end zone. A slant to Douglas for a touchdown. A hard roll out to the right and a dart to Wright at the front corner of the end zone.
