Preseason
As it stands, Austin Hooper will be the starting tight end for the Tennessee Titans. How fruitful that will be for fantasy intended purposes is another story. The Titans haven't been doing the tight end position many favors during Head Coach Mike Vrabel and quarterback Ryan Tannehill's tenure. Since 2019, Jonnu Smith has been the only Titans tight end to rank higher than 26th in routes ran. In 2020, Smith finished 10th among tight ends from weeks 1 through 16. He had received the highest number of targets (66) under Tannehill while averaging 5.5 yards after the catch. In 2020, Hooper averaged 3.3 yards after the catch and 3.9 in 2021. Hooper isn't in the same dimension of athleticism as Smith. Also when considering the Titans strong bias towards leaning on the run game and the addition of Robert Woods, the volume or upside isn't there for Hooper to finish in the top 12 of tight ends in 2022.
