Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) has been ruled out for the Week 18 matchup against the Houston Texans. Folk will now miss his third game in a row due to an abdominal issue. He'll finish the season nearly perfect on his kicks. Folk made 25-of-25 extra point attempts and 21-of-22 field goal attempts during his 14 games with the Titans this season. The 40-year-old will be a free agent this offseason, but he shouldn't have any issues finding another opportunity, assuming he wants to continue his career. Matthew Wright will kick for the Titans for the regular season finale. He made all three of his kicks during last week's game.

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. This was an improvement for the 40-year-old after being estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday. Folk kicked in each of the Titans' first 14 games this season, but he has missed the last two contests due to injury. His return to practice on Thursday comes one day after the Titans released Matthew Wright from their active roster. All signs point to Folk suiting up for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Houston Texans.

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimation. The veteran kicker has missed two consecutive games due to injury and now faces an uphill battle to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Houston Texans. It's an unfortunate ending to what had been an otherwise solid season for Folk. Through 14 games, the 40-year-old went 25-for-25 on extra points and 21-for-22 on field goals. Tennessee has no other kickers on its roster after waiving Matthew Wright, so it's unclear who would handle kicking duties if Folk can't suit up in Week 18.

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) has been ruled out for the Week 17 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Folk hasn't been able to practice this week due to an abdominal issue which will force him to miss his second straight game. The expectation is that Matthew Wright will be elevated from the practice squad to kick this weekend. Brayden Narveson kicked last week for Tennessee, but was cut after he missed his lone field goal attempt. Wright has made 11-of-12 field goal attempts and all his extra point attempts in three games between the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs. He has been productive when active, so fantasy managers looking for a possible streaming option might want to consider Wright.

According to Turron Davenport of ESPN, Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) did not practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Folk did not suit up last weekend and is in danger of missing his second-straight contest. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status on Friday in case he is able to practice in some capacity. However, the 40-year-old will likely face an uphill battle to return to action this weekend. Across 14 games this season, Folk has posted an impressive 95.5% FG conversion rate and has gone a perfect 25-for-25 on extra points. Brayden Narveson will get the starting nod if Folk cannot play on Sunday. However, given the inconsistencies of the Tennessee offense, both kickers should not be in your starting lineup in the fantasy playoffs.

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) is officially inactive in Week 16 against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Folk was unable to practice on Wednesday and Thursday before putting in a limited session on Friday, but he will not be active for Tennessee this weekend. Instead, rookie Brayden Narveson was signed from the practice squad to the 53-man active roster on Saturday in order to take over kicking duties in Tennessee for the week. Fantasy managers that had been using the 40-year-old Folk will obviously need to look in another direction. You can probably do better than Narveson, who made 12 of his 17 field-goal attempts and all 16 of his extra-point chances in six games with the Green Bay Packers earlier this year in his first NFL action.
Dec 22, 2024 11:52 AM EST
Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan said that kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's contest versus the division-rival Indianapolis Colts in Week 16. For insurance in case he can't go, the team plans to bring up Brayden Narveson from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster for the weekend. The 40-year-old veteran has been basically automatic this year for a lackluster Titans offense, but he apparently came out of the Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals with an injury and may not be able to kick in Week 16. Folk has made 21 of his 22 field-goal tries in 2024 and has been successful on all 25 of his extra-point tries as well. However, because of his injury and in an offense that will start Mason Rudolph at quarterback this weekend, fantasy managers will want to avoid Folk.

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (groin) was a full-go in the team's practice on Thursday, one day after he was listed as a non-participant due to a groin injury. The Titans signed kicker Brayden Narveson to their practice squad on Wednesday, signaling that there was uncertainty as to whether Folk would be able to kick in Week 15 against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 40-year-old veteran still isn't guaranteed to play this weekend, but a return to a full practice after a DNP on Wednesday is definitely a good sign. Folk was Tennessee's entire offense in last Sunday's 10-6 loss to the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, making his only two field-goal attempts. Folk enters Week 15 action as the No. 18 fantasy kicker in terms of overall points and should be avoided in most leagues, even though the matchup against Cincy is a nice one. His 22 FG attempts on the year have him tied for 22nd among all kickers in 2024.
Dec 12, 2024 7:56 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (groin) was listed as a non-participant for his team's first practice of the week. The 40-year-old has been near-automatic this season for Tennessee, knocking through every kick but one -- a field goal attempt -- through 13 games. Folk made both of his kicks in Sunday's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars but apparently picked up a groin injury during the contest. While the severity of the ailment is unknown, the Titans did sign kicker Brayden Narveson to their practice squad. Folk will have a few more opportunities to prove his health before Tennessee's meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 15. Still, they are hedging their bets, which means the journeyman kicker could be on the wrong side of his current designation. If he can't play, Narveson would assuredly be called upon in his stead.
Dec 11, 2024 9:07 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (undisclosed) could be in danger of missing the Week 15 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The veteran kicker is currently dealing with an injury, according to Mike Garafolo. That being said, the Titans have signed Brayden Narveson to their practice squad as insurance in case Folk is unable to go this weekend. Folk has been extremely reliable as a kicker this season with only one missed field goal heading into Week 15. His absence would certainly be frustrating especially given the fact that many leagues are beginning the playoffs this week. However, fantasy managers will have to wait until later in the week for more news on Folk.
Dec 10, 2024 9:15 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk has seen his workload increase over the last few weeks. In fact, Folk has made all seven of his field goal attempts over the last three games. The veteran kicker has been solid as he has missed only one kick all season long. The assumption is that Folk should continue having decent streaming appeal against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14. The Titans offense should be able to have success moving the ball which should put Folk in a position to succeed this weekend.
Dec 8, 2024 9:57 AM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk is worth considering as a low-end fantasy streamer in Week 12 against the Houston Texans. Although the Titans haven't given Folk a whole lot of scoring opportunities this year, he has made the most of his chances, going 14-for-15 on field goals and 18-for-18 on extra points. Despite his accuracy, he ranks 23rd among kickers in fantasy points, largely due to the Titans' aforementioned struggles on offense this season. To further complicate matters, the Texans have been somewhat stingy on special teams, holding opposing kickers to the 14th-fewest fantasy points. With that said, Houston has surrendered 0.6 field goals of at least 50 yards per game, which is the fourth-most in the NFL. Therefore, despite his tougher matchup, Folk could put himself on the fantasy radar with his accuracy and powerful leg. He's a fringe top-12 option heading into Sunday's divisional battle.

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk faces the New York Jets in a Week 2 matchup this Sunday. The veteran nailed his only field goal attempt against Chicago last week, booting in a 40-yarder early in the second quarter. Unfortunately the Titans offense could not move the ball for the entirety of the second half which didn't lead to many opportunities for Folk to put points on the board. The story may be the same this coming week with the Jets and their stout defensive unit coming to town. There are likely better kicking options currently on waivers for this week.
Sep 13, 2024 5:56 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk will start the season in Chicago taking on the Bears in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season. Folk was the #19 kicker last year but the ranking wasn't emblematic of his effectiveness. It was a career-year for the 39-year old veteran, who finished first in the NFL with a 96.7% conversion rate. The Titans have a completely revamped offense which should score more than 17.9 points per game (26th overall), meaning Folk will have many more opportunities to score fantasy points. However, Chicago has one of the best defenses in the league and is playing on their home turf in Week 1. With the Titans offense still unproven, Folk is probably better left on waivers for opening weekend.
Sep 6, 2024 2:00 PM EST
The Tennessee Titans re-signed veteran kicker Nick Folk to a one-year, $3.755 million deal on Wednesday, according to a source. The deal can be worth a maximum of $4.13 million through incentives. Although Folk wasn't as productive in fantasy -- he finished as the No. 21 kicker in overall fantasy points -- as he was in 2022 with the New England Patriots, he's been one of the most accurate kickers in the league in recent seasons. The 39-year-old missed just one of his 30 field-goal attempts for a league-best 96.7 percent conversion rate. Folk also missed just two of his 30 extra-point tries in his first year in Tennessee in 2023. The Titans lost All-Pro running back Derrick Henry in free agency, but they added Tony Pollard and receiver Calvin Ridley, so there's certainly potential for Folk to get more chances for field goals and extra points in 2024.
Mar 13, 2024 6:06 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk missed his kick of the season last week, but the 39-year-old is still 21-of-22 on field goals and 13-of-13 on extra points this year. Although Tennessee's offense has been putrid in recent weeks, that can sometimes work in the favor of fantasy kickers. If Will Levis can at least bounce back and move the ball a little bit on Sunday against the Jaguars, Folk should be in for more field goal and extra-point attempts. In 14-plus team leagues, he's worth consideration.
Nov 16, 2023 2:58 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk remains perfect on the season after eight games. The 39-year-old has made all 19 of his field goal attempts and all 13 extra point tries. At this point in the season, he ranks sixth in fantasy points per game (10.0). That said, he remains on the fantasy radar and is a viable fantasy starter in Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Nov 9, 2023 7:30 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk has yet to miss an extra point or field goal attempt this season on 28 total tries. He ranks eighth among kickers in fantasy points per game this season and is set to play on Thursday Night Football against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rookie quarterback Will Levis might continue to give the Titans' offense more juice, which could lead to more scoring opportunities for Folk. This Thursday Night AFC Showdown in Pittsburgh could prove to be a battle of field possession and field goals, so the 38-year-old could finish as a top-ten kicker option in Week 9.
Nov 1, 2023 3:38 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk has made all 13 of his field goal attempts this season, including three kicks from 50-plus yards. He's also made all seven of his extra-point tries. Tennessee has scored the seventh-fewest points per game (17.6) and its Week 6 opponent, the Baltimore Ravens, has allowed the third-fewest points (15.0) per game. In all likelihood, the Titans' offense will stall out before it reaches the red zone, meaning Folk could have more chances to score fantasy points. The veteran ranks fifth in fantasy points among kickers this season, so he offers upside for fantasy managers looking for a streaming option.
Oct 12, 2023 2:39 PM EST
Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk has made all ten of his field goal attempts and all six of his extra point attempts through four games this season. The veteran looks confident from any distance, making him an intriguing Week 5 streaming option. The 38-year-old ranks sixth in total fantasy points (43) at the position after finishing last year's campaign with the New England Patriots as the No. 6 scorer among kickers. Fantasy managers playing the weekly kicker streaming game should give him a look against the Indianapolis Colts, who play indoors.
