Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Records 117 Yards, Touchdown in Loss to Minnesota

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught two of six targets for 117 yards and a touchdown vs. the Minnesota Vikings this weekend. The Indiana product was almost invisible until the 3rd quarter, when Will Levis hit him on the right sideline for a 98-yard score, the longest in his career. Westbrook-Ikine continues to prove his reliability as a second target for quarterback Will Levis, with five touchdowns in his last six games. While he only corralled two passes, Westbrook-Ikine made the most of his opportunities, and tied for the team lead in targets. He will be a low-end flex next week in a tough matchup with divisional rival Houston.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Only A Deep-League Flex Option vs. Vikings

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine will face the Vikings in Week 11 NFL action this Sunday. The career Titan has really stepped up as the second wide-receiver on this team when DeAndre Hopkins left, leading the team in receiving touchdowns with four. Calvin Ridley is still far and away the top option in the passing game for whoever is quarterbacking the Titans, but Westbrook-Ikine has been a sneaky reliable play for the most part since Week 7, finishing as a top-36 fantasy WR three times. The Vikings have not been great at stopping opposing wideouts, as they currently rank 30th against the position, but quarterback Will Levis will likely be under heavy pressure all game which does not bode well for his #2 receiver. The Indiana product is only a flex option in deeper formats for Week 11.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Unlikely to Continue Production in Week 10 at Chargers

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine will take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. The undrafted receiver out of Indiana has taken advantage of the extra opportunity afforded to him after DeAndre Hopkins was traded, posting a touchdown in four straight games. In the past two weeks he's seen 10 targets, second on the team behind Calvin Ridley. Westbrook-Ikhine has seemed to develop a solid rapport with quarterback Mason Rudolph right at the time that Will Levis takes back the top signal-caller spot for the Titans. Because of this, he's off the fantasy radar in Week 10 against a Chargers defense that has been extremely hard to move the ball against.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Finds The End Zone Again On Sunday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine had five receptions (six targets) for 50 yards in Sunday's win over the New England Patriots. The 27-year-old also found the end zone in this one, extending his streak to four consecutive games with a touchdown. With DeAndre Hopkins now in Kansas City, there is room for others to step up on the receiving end behind Calvin Ridley. While Westbrook-Ikhine will eventually cool off, fantasy managers can continue to start him in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine High-Risk Flex Option In Deeper Formats

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine could be worth a look as a high-risk flex option in deep 3WR formats in Week 9. Last weekend, the 27-year-old eclipsed double-digit PPR points for the first time this season and found the end zone for the third straight week. This weekend, Westbrook-Ikhine could continue to have a prominent role in the Tennessee passing attack as wideout Tyler Boyd (shoulder) is listed as questionable. If Boyd cannot suit up, Westbrook-Ikhine would be deployed as the clear No.2 wide receiver opposite of Calvin Ridley. He could enjoy another productive weekend facing the Patriots, who have allowed the 19th-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Puts Up 39 Yards, Touchdown vs. Detroit

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught two passes on four targets or 39 yards and a touchdown in a blowout loss to the Lions on Sunday. With the departure of DeAndre Hopkins, all signs pointed to Tyler Boyd being the WR who would step up vs. Detroit but it was Westbrook-Ikhine who had the much better fantasy day. Boyd still out-targeted the former Indiana star, but the latter caught the only touchdown pass on the day from quarterback Mason Rudolph, a well-run slant from six yards out. Calvin Ridley is still the alpha wideout in this offense by a long shot based on his 39% target share on Sunday, but Westbrook-Ikhine has scored a touchdown in three straight games and continues to be a reliable target for whoever is playing quarterback for the Titans. He will look to continue his scoring streak next week against the Patriots.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Ready For More Involvement In Week 8?

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has only three catches this season. However, two of them resulted in a trip to the end zone. While the 27-year-old has a way to go before earning trust from fantasy managers, the door is open for more involvement after DeAndre Hopkins was traded to the Chiefs. Granted, Tyler Boyd could also significantly benefit from Hopkins' departure. But Westbrook-Ikhine is at least worth adding to fantasy rosters in case he gets more involved moving ahead. For now, fantasy managers would be taking a risk by including him in their starting lineups for Week 8 versus the Lions.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Finds The End Zone Versus Seattle

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught two of his four targets for 20 yards in Saturday's preseason win over Seattle. While Nick Westbrook-Ikhine didn't get as many looks as some of the other wideouts on the roster, he made the most of his limited targets, pulling in a 15-yard pass from Mason Rudolph near the end of the second quarter. The 27-year-old has had flashes of production in his four seasons with the Titans, totaling 94 receptions for 1,276 yards and 10 touchdowns. However, the Titans have depth at the wide receiver position, meaning Nick Westbrook-Ikhine won't be consistently involved. With that said, he could still have a few decent outings during the 2024-25 campaign. Tennessee will end the preseason with a trip to New Orleans to meet the Saints.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine's Season Comes To An End

The Tennessee Titans announced that wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (hand) is being placed on season-ending injured reserve with a hand injury. He will wrap up the campaign with 28 catches for 370 yards with three touchdowns. Tennessee signed linebacker Garret Wallow off of Houston's practice squad to fill his spot. Westbrook-Ikhine essentially operated as the WR2 for the majority of the season with Treylon Burks missing chunks of time with various ailments. The 26-year-old will be a free agent when the offseason arrives.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Active For Week 15 Versus Texans

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (illness) is officially active for Week 15 versus the Houston Texans. He had been listed as questionable after missing Friday's practice. Evidently, his condition improved over the final 48 hours before kickoff. Westbrook-Ikhine has played at least 75 percent of the Titans' offensive snaps over the last three games and should continue to operate as their No. 2 wide receiver alongside DeAndre Hopkins in Week 15. However, his production has remained somewhat limited, so he's only an appealing fantasy option in deep leagues.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Questionable To Face Texans

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (illness) was added to the injury report after missing practice on Friday. He is officially questionable to play against the Houston Texans in Week 15. The 26-year-old has delivered steady contributions this season, totaling 27 catches, 337 yards, and three touchdowns over the course of 13 games. Despite his solid role in the offense, he only has relevance in the deepest of fantasy leagues.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine A Desperation Flex Play

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is the team's second-leading receiver, compiling 24 receptions for 281 yards and three touchdowns this season. If Treylon Burks (concussion) doesn't suit up against the Colts in Week 13, Westbrook-Ikhine can be viewed as a low-end flex play for deep-league fantasy managers. He has virtually no floor, but with six teams on a bye this week, the options are slim for Sunday's full slate. If Burks returns to action, Westbrook-Ikhine should be avoided altogether.

Nov 30, 2023 2:25 PM EST


Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Has Deep League Flex Appeal

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is tied with DeAndre Hopkins for the team lead in touchdown receptions this season (three). However, he has just 18 receptions for 224 yards through nine weeks. He's far from a safe fantasy option, but he does have deep league appeal l in a Week 10 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tampa Bay surrendered 470 passing yards last week and has allowed the second-most fantasy points per game to wideouts this season. With several big-name wideouts on a bye in Week 10, Westbrook-Ikhine can be utilized as a desperation flex option. The Titans' passing game has looked much improved under rookie quarterback Will Levis. Westbrook-Ikhine has outperformed Treylon Burks to this point, and Burks might miss this game with a concussion.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Has Deep-League Intrigue

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught his third touchdown of the season last week against the Atlanta Falcons, reintroducing himself to the fantasy football radar. Rookie quarterback Will Levis looked impressive in his NFL debut, tossing four touchdowns and zero interceptions. Heading into a matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to wideouts, Westbrook-Ikhine is an intriguing deep league flex play. This likely depends on the game status of DeAndre Hopkins (toe), who is questionable with a toe injury. If Hopkins is out, Westbrook-Ikhine could operate as the team's No. 1 wide receiver. He or Treylon Burks would likely lead the team in targets. If Hopkins plays, he has a low floor and should likely be benched.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Scores Third Touchdown In Week 8

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught one of his two targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in the Week 8 win over the Atlanta Falcons. It was his third end zone trip of the season. DeAndre Hopkins caught four passes and three touchdowns, and Treylon Burks did not catch either of his two targets. So far this season, Westbrook-Ikhine has operated as the team's WR2. If Will Levis continues to shine after a four-touchdown debut, Westbrook-Ikhine could enter the fantasy radar in deep formats. For now, he should probably remain on the waiver wire heading into a Week 9 matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Has Low Floor Against Ravens

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is the only receiver on the team to catch a touchdown this season. He has found the end zone twice, but his overall body of work hasn't made him a strong fantasy option heading into Week 6. In the absence of Treylon Burks (knee) in a favorable matchup for wideouts last week, Westbrook-Ikhine caught just one pass for nine yards. With the Titans set to play the Baltimore Ravens' stout defense, Westbrook-Ikhine should be viewed as nothing more than a touchdown-dependent flex option in ultra-deep leagues. This holds true even if Burks is out once again.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine A Deep-League Flex Option

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has hauled in 12 passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns this season. The 26-year-old is far from a fantasy superstar, but if Treylon Burks (knee) misses the Week 5 contest against the Indianapolis Colts, he could be worth starting in deep formats. The Colts have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to wideouts this season, and Westbrook-Ikhine is the only Tennessee receiver with a touchdown grab. His floor is low in the inconsistent offense led by Ryan Tannehill, but deep league fantasy managers might have to consider him with several key pass-catchers on a bye this week.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Posts 51 Yards, Touchdown In Win

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine hauled in five of his six targets for 51 yards and a touchdown in the 27-3 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The 26-year-old stepped into an increased role in the absence of Treylon Burks (knee) and delivered a solid outing. If Burks remains out against the Indianapolis Colts next week, Westbrook-Ikhine could be worth starting in deep leagues as a desperation flex play. In shallow leagues, he's not worth picking up just yet.

Oct 1, 2023 4:28 PM EST


Nick Westbrook-Ikhine To Play Bigger Role Against Bengals

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine should start for the Titans in two wide receiver sets against the Cincinnati Bengals in the absence of Treylon Burks (knee). Westbrook-Ikhine has seven receptions for 83 yards and a touchdown in three games thus far. The Titans' passing offense is far from reliable, but there are fantasy managers in ultra-deep leagues that could use him as a desperation flex play. Chris Moore, who has three receptions for 90 yards, should see an uptick in snaps, too. Ultimately, DeAndre Hopkins should be a lock to see double-digit targets, but Westbrook-Ikhine or Moore will likely see the leftovers.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Scores Touchdown In Victory Over Chargers

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught all three of his targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in the Week 2 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The 26-year-old caught four passes for 58 yards last week, so he's had a solid start to his 2023 campaign. Still, he's not worth picking up off the waiver wire just yet. DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks are still expected to operate as the top two wideouts in the Tennessee offense, and Ryan Tannehill is unlikely to support three fantasy-relevant pass-catchers.
