Link to storyTennessee Titans WR Van Jefferson (back) left the Week 15 game against the San Francisco 49ers in the fourth quarter due to a back injury. He did not return.
| Footballguys view: Despite the early exit, Jefferson tied for second on the team in targets for the game. As Tennessee's third receiver behind Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike, his status will be worth monitoring as the practice week begins. The Titans play the Chiefs in Week 16. |

Tennessee Titans WR Chimere Dike leads the NFL in all-purpose yards (1,984), kick return yards (1,323) and yards per punt return (19.9). 'Dike gets the ball thrown to him, punted to him and kicked to him,' special teams coordinator John Fassel said. 'He's an incredibly valuable weapon because he can do all of that.'

Tennessee Titans TE Chig Okonkwo (non-injury) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 12, and is not on the injury report for Week 15.
| Footballguys view: Okonkwo has started to lose work to rookie Gunnar Helm. Okonkwo is expected to play this week, but he's unstartable in almost any format. |
Tennessee Titans RB Tony Pollard (non-injury) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 12, and is not on the injury report for Week 15.
| Footballguys view: Pollard's inclusion on the injury report was simply rest-related. He ran away with the bulk of the touches last week, posting a season-best 161 rushing yards against the Browns. He's an RB3 this week in San Francisco. |

Tennessee Titans RB Tony Pollard rushed 25 times for 161 yards and two touchdowns in Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns, while he was not targeted in the passing game.
| Footballguys view: Pollard was almost certainly in very few lineups, and was probably on a lot of waiver wires for this performance. He broke free twice for scores from 65 and 32 yards, and the Titans were willing to feed him as they were in the lead for most of the first half and all of the fourth quarter. He'll be add as a desperation depth bench stash for Week 17 against the Saints, but the Titans will have trouble hanging with the 49ers and Chiefs the next two weeks. |

Tennessee Titans QB Cam Ward completed 14-of-28 passes for 117 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns, while adding two runs for four yards during icy and snowy field conditions.
| Footballguys view: Ward was about as effective as one would expect on a cold afternoon in Cleveland, but he did convert touchdowns when gifted with short fields and the team showed the kind of fight in the win that we've come to expect from the #1 pick every week despite his long odds to pull off a win like he did in this game. He has some appeal as a QB2/Superflex option at San Francisco next week. |
