NFL DRAFT ROOKIE GUIDE IS NOW LIVE!
ESPN's Brooke Pryor suggests that the Pittsburgh Steelers could opt to bring in Tennessee Titans impending free-agent quarterback Ryan Tannehill as a short-term fix at the position if they want to give Kenny Pickett more time to develop in 2024. It makes some sense given Tannehill's success in offensive coordinator Arthur Smith's system in Tennessee -- Tannehill earned his lone Pro Bowl nod in 2019 with Smith running the offense. However, Tannehill is now 35 years old and wouldn't have the type of aerial weapons that he did when he had a career-best season in Tennessee. Pittsburgh has also expressed interest in re-signing Mason Rudolph, who was more efficient after taking over for Pickett while leading the team to a playoff berth.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 17 of his 26 passes for 168 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the Week 18 upset win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was likely Tannehill's final game with the organization, and he did enough to knock the Jaguars out of the playoffs. The 35-year-old is unlikely to land a starting job in the offseason, but he could serve as a bridge quarterback or draw a start or two next season due to injuries. There's a low chance he's on the fantasy radar in single-QB formats next year, but deep Superflex league fantasy managers should monitor his landing spot in free agency.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill will make the start in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars instead of rookie Will Levis, who injured his foot in the Week 17 loss to the Houston Texans. With the Titans already eliminated from the postseason, they've elected to give the 35-year-old Tannehill one final start in what is expected to be his final game with the organization. He'll have a lot of incentive to play well in front of the home faithful as the Titans look to spoil the Jaguars' playoff hopes. Tannehill also started in Week 16 with Levis sidelined, and he's gone 34-for-46 for 320 yards, no touchdowns or interceptions in the last two weeks. He'll be playing with a lot of emotions this weekend but won't be a recommended DFS sleeper at the QB position.
Jan 5, 2024 2:15 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill could be in line to start in the team's season finale against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Rookie quarterback Will Levis (foot) suffered a foot injury in the Week 17 loss to the Houston Texans and did not return after exiting. Tannehill went on to complete 16 of his 20 passing attempts for 186 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions. If Levis can't play on Sunday, Tannehill will draw the start in what is likely to be his last game with the organization. The 35-year-old had a great run with Tennessee, but his contract is up after this season, and he's no longer viewed as the franchise quarterback. Tannehill remains off the fantasy or DFS radar this week after throwing just two touchdowns in eight appearances this season.
Jan 2, 2024 2:09 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 16 of his 20 passing attempts for 168 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions in the Week 17 blowout loss to the Houston Texans. Tannehill came in for an injured Will Levis (foot), who was dealing with a high-ankle sprain heading into Sunday. There's a good chance Levis will be held out of Week 18 as a precaution, meaning Tannehill would start against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Next week could be Tannehill's final game as a Titan. Neither Tennessee quarterback belongs on the fantasy radar.
Dec 31, 2023 4:15 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 18 of his 26 passing attempts for 152 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions in the Week 16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The veteran has just two passing touchdowns in eight games this year, so he remains off the fantasy radar if he draws another start next week. Will Levis (ankle) is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, so who will start against Houston in Week 17 is to be determined.
Dec 24, 2023 8:16 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill will draw the start in Week 16 versus the Seattle Seahawks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. This comes in the wake of an injury to Will Levis (ankle), who practiced on Friday but is expected to be inactive this week. Tannehill, of course, started the Titans' first six games of the season before a combination of injury and poor performance led to his benching during the bye week. He had struggled drastically as the starter, completing just 62 percent of his passes for 1,128 yards, two touchdowns, and six interceptions. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect anything special from him during Sunday's spot start. He remains off the fantasy radar while top pass-catcher DeAndre Hopkins falls to the low-end WR2 range.
Dec 24, 2023 8:27 AM EST
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that quarterback Ryan Tannehill will be the team's starting QB on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks if rookie Will Levis (ankle) is not available. Levis suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 15's overtime loss to the Houston Texans and is now firmly in danger of sitting out this weekend. For what it's worth, Levis was unable to practice on Wednesday, allowing Tannehill to take first-team snaps. The 35-year-old dealt with a high-ankle sprain of his own earlier this year and missed three games, allowing Levis to take over the starting role in his first NFL season. Tannehill looked washed up in six starts earlier this year before getting hurt, going 98-for-158 for 1,128 yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions. He'll be a low-upside, low-end QB2 in superflex leagues if he makes the start against Seattle.
Dec 20, 2023 3:29 PM EST
Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (ankle) is not practicing with the team on Wednesday. As a result, veteran Ryan Tannehill is taking first-team snaps under center. Levis is probably on the wrong side of questionable for Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday after suffering a high-ankle sprain in last week's overtime loss to the Houston Texans. High-ankle sprains typically require players to miss several weeks of action, so it's possible Levis could miss multiple games. Tannehill will return to a starting role if Levis misses any time. The 35-year-old suffered a high-ankle sprain of his own in Week 6 and hasn't played since, although he's been active since Week 11. In six starts before his injury and before Levis took over the offense, Tannehill struggled with a 62.03 completion percentage, 1,128 passing yards, only two touchdowns and six interceptions.
Dec 20, 2023 1:37 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) was a full practice participant all week and has been removed from the final Week 11 injury report on Friday. It means that he will be active for the Titans for the first time since spraining his ankle in the Week 6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. However, all of what little fantasy value Tannehill had left evaporated when the Titans handed the starting quarterback duties over to rookie Will Levis several weeks ago. As long as Levis doesn't miss time with an injury, he's expected to finish out the season as Tennessee's starting QB, with Tannehill relegated to sideline clipboard-holding duties. The 35-year-old Tannehill belongs on the waiver wire in all single-QB fantasy leagues.
Nov 17, 2023 5:30 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) got in a full practice on Wednesday ahead of his team's Week 11 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Tannehill injured his ankle several weeks back but has since been benched for rookie Will Levis despite his injury being fully healed. He served as the team's QB3 in Week 10 and was inactive but it remains to be seen whether he is elevated to the backup role against the Jaguars. Tannehill is unlikely to get his starting job back this season unless Levis gets injured.
Nov 15, 2023 10:00 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is officially inactive for Week 10 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The team listed him as questionable entering the contest, but as kickoff approached, it became increasingly more likely that he would suit up. Tennessee recently named Will Levis as its permanent starter, meaning Tannehill would've been the backup if active. Instead, Malik Willis will operate as the No. 2 quarterback, at least for the time being. Tannehill's next chance to avoid the inactive list will come in Week 11 against Jacksonville.
Nov 12, 2023 12:01 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is expected to be inactive for Week 10 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The team listed him as questionable, leaving the door open for him to suit up, but he's a "long-shot to be active." Malik Willis will be active in his place, operating as the backup to rookie starter Will Levis.
Nov 12, 2023 8:38 AM EST
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said backup quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is questionable and will be a game-time decision to play in Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Tannehill has been out since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Week 6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. When he is able to return, he will be holding a clipboard on the sideline as the backup to rookie Will Levis. As a result, the 35-year-old veteran has lost what little fantasy appeal he had in two-QB leagues moving forward. If Tannehill misses another game in Week 10, Malik Willis will be the primary backup for Levis in his third NFL start.
Nov 10, 2023 2:17 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) made his return to practice on Wednesday and was listed as a limited participant. It was the first time that Tannehill has practiced since suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 6. The veteran signal-caller is clearly improving, but the Titans named rookie quarterback Will Levis as their starter moving forward. It means that whenever Tannehill is game-ready, he will be serving as Levis' backup while holding a clipboard on the sideline. Even in his first two NFL starts, Levis has displayed much more upside for Tennessee's offense than Tannehill. The 35-year-old Tannehill was completing only 62 percent of his pass attempts for 1,128 yards, two touchdowns and six touchdowns in six games before getting hurt.
Nov 8, 2023 8:38 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) has officially been ruled out for Thursday Night Football in Week 9 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. This was expected as the veteran signal-caller has been dealing with an ankle injury since Week 6. Rookie quarterback Will Levis looked sharp in his debut, throwing four touchdowns in a victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8, and he could be in line for another solid performance against a banged-up Pittsburgh secondary that is missing safety Minkah Fitzpatrick. Even if Levis struggles, he brings a more dynamic edge to a Tennessee offense that has looked slow and stagnant under Tannehill when healthy.
Nov 1, 2023 6:26 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is not practicing on Tuesday due to the ankle injury he suffered in the Week 6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in London. Tannehill is dealing with a high-ankle sprain. Mike Vrabel has already announced that rookie Will Levis will start for Tennessee against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday Night Football. Levis threw four touchdowns and did not post a turnover in his NFL debut. If the rookie continues to shine, there's a good chance Tannehill has seen his last action for Tennessee. Although Levis posted a big fantasy outing in Week 8, a primetime road matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers could be a tough spot for an inexperienced signal-caller.
Oct 31, 2023 2:32 PM EST
Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's injury report. Tannehill had a bye week (Week 7) to recover from a high-ankle sprain that he suffered in Week 6, but he was unable to play in the Week 8 win over the Atlanta Falcons and is not expected to be active this Thursday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rookie Will Levis threw four touchdown passes in his NFL debut this past Sunday and is going to get another start this week. The 35-year-old Tannehill won't be rushed back from his injury, especially if Levis continues to impress. The Titans could have somewhat of a QB controversy once Tannehill is ready to return. He hasn't been good so far in 2023, completing just 62% of his 158 pass attempts for 1,128 yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions in six games played.
Oct 30, 2023 7:56 PM EST
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) missed his third consecutive practice on Friday and has been ruled out for Week 8 versus the Atlanta Falcons. This was widely expected, but the team has now provided official confirmation heading into the weekend. With Tannehill set to miss his first game of the season, rookie Will Levis is expected to start at quarterback for Tennessee. However, head coach Mike Vrabel has hinted at giving Malik Willis some snaps, too. Neither young signal-caller has legitimate fantasy appeal.
Oct 27, 2023 2:03 PM EST
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) will not practice on Tuesday, but the team will "see where he is at the end of the week." If Tannehill is unable to play in Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons, as expected, Vrabel anticipates both Malik Willis and rookie Will Levis playing on Sunday. Tannehill suffered a right high-ankle sprain in Week 6 and had last week's bye to rest up, but he's still not expected to play this coming weekend and could miss more time as well. The 35-year-old veteran signal-caller belongs on the waiver wire in all single-QB leagues, as he sits as the QB32 in fantasy through six games played. Willis would figure to be the better QB2 speculation in superflex leagues for however long Tannehill is out, but it sounds like the Titans want to get Levis some experience as well.
