Week 3 at Minnesota Vikings
Filling in for A.J. Brown as the Titans No. 1 WR last week Corey Davis snagged three passes for 36 yards and a score. In the win over Jacksonville Ryan Tannehill only threw 24 times, with fellow WR Adam Humphries leading the team with six targets. Although Brown is expected back on Sunday at Minnesota, the Vikings haven’t been able to slow down either of their first two opponents, making Davis a WR3/flex option.
Week 2 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
In the opener last Monday in Denver, Corey Davis got off to a quick start, finishing with team-highs of seven catches and 101 yards. It looked like the Broncos defense wasn’t going to let A.J. Brown beat them, which led to the big outing from Davis. Brown will miss this week's contest, so Davis could be in line for another good performance. Consider him a WR2 play in the Tennessee home opener on Sunday.
Week 1 – Corey Davis at Denver Broncos
In what has been a disappointing first three pro seasons, Corey Davis will be the No. 2 WR option for Ryan Tannehill and the Titans offense. The former first-round pick finished with just 43 receptions last season and has scored only six times in his career. With Tennessee using Derrick Henry to control the clock and A.J. Brown being the featured receiving, Davis’ targets may be limited. He makes for at best a WR3/flex play on Monday.
Week 16 vs. New Orleans Saints
Corey Davis got six targets last week, his most since Week 8, and responded with three receptions for 52 yards. But he's dealing with an ankle injury that could slow him down. The Saints will likely roll coverages to A.J. Brown, which could give Davis some additional work, but the ankle is an issue. He's worth only a longshot as a flex option this week.
Week 14 at Oakland Raiders
The Titans' move to Ryan Tannehill hasn't paid off with big games for Corey Davis. He caught just one pass for 23 yards on two targets last week and hasn't gotten any real volume since Tannehill took over at QB -- his first start notwithstanding. Davis isn't someone who should be in your lineup. There's just too much variance.
Week 13 at Indianapolis Colts
While rookie A.J. Brown has had some big games with Ryan Tannehill at quarterback, the same cannot be said for Corey Davis. That includes a two-catch, 29-yard game last week in which he got three targets. Davis also had just three receptions for 38 yards in Week 2 against the Colts. He's just not someone you can trust right now, even as a flex option.
Week 12 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
Corey Davis is expected back this week after sitting out with a hip injury against Kansas City prior to the bye week. But will the Titans throw the ball enough for their receivers to feast? The Jaguars have been easy to run against of late and the Titans could be content to do so. That might not afford many opportunities to catch the ball. Use Davis as nothing more than a flex option this week.
Week 10 vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Corey Davis caught four of his five targets last week but managed just 48 yards in the loss to the Panthers. But Davis is dealing with a hip injury this week. Check his status Friday before you play him in a juicy matchup against the Chiefs at home. Davis is worth a shot as a flex option this week assuming he plays.
Week 9 at Carolina Panthers
Somehow, Corey Davis turned six targets last week into just two catches for nine yards. The bad news this week is that the Panthers have allowed just five touchdown passes to opposing receivers. The good? They've given up 111 receptions to opposing receivers. Only the Vikings and Texans have allowed more. Davis could bounce back in this game. He certainly should do better than last week. But given his up-and-down nature, he's only worth a flex play.
Week 8 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Corey Davis celebrated a change in QBs with a season-high seven targets, turning them into six catches for 80 yards and a score. That's more like it. Davis has a nice matchup this week with a soft Tampa Bay passing defense and should be a solid play this week as a WR3. It's a bit of a leap in faith, but the passing game finally looked good last week with Ryan Tannehill at the helm.
