Titans' Josh Whyle: Posts season-high snap share
Whyle recorded one catch on one target for five yards in Monday's 31-12 win over the Dolphins.
Whyle earned a season-high 55 percent snap share, which was the highest rate of any tight end on the team. That didn't lead to much production as the Titans used a run-heavy game script while holding a lead for the entire game. Whyle could see more receiving opportunity coming out of Tennessee's bye in a Week 6 matchup against the Colts.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Role ticking up
Whyle recorded four receptions (on five targets) for 43 yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to Green Bay.
Whyle was on the field for 47 percent of offensive snaps, a similar role to what he earned Week 2. However, he was more frequently involved as a pass catcher, finishing second on the team in targets and tied for second in receptions. He's likely to continue to split snaps with Chigoziem Okonkwo, but Whyle could be the more productive fantasy option moving forward.

Titans' Josh Whyle: First catches of 2024
Whyle recorded two receptions on two targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Jets.
Whyle saw his offensive snap rate rise from 30 percent in Week 1 to 42 percent Sunday. He was able to pick up his first catches of the season, highlighted by a 12-yard gain late in the first quarter that set up a touchdown two plays later. Whyle could continue to see his snap rate rise as the season progresses, as Chigoziem Okonkwo has failed to make a consistent mark on Tennessee's offense across the last three seasons.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Stuck in limited role
Whyle was not targeted in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Bears.
Whyle got moderate hype during training camp as he attempted to unseat Chigoziem Okonkwo as the top tight end in Tennessee. His usage in Week 1 made clear that didn't occur, as he saw only 18 offensive snaps (28 percent) while Nick Vannett earned 16. Whyle remains primarily a special-teams contributor.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Left off injury report
Whyle (concussion) wasn't on Tennessee's injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Bears, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Whyle missed the latter part of August with a concussion, but it appears he's cleared protocol just in time for the Titans' Week 1 outing. With Whyle back at full health, he's expected to serve as Tennessee's top backup tight end behind Chigoziem Okonkwo this season.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Returning this week?
Head coach Brian Callahan told reporters Monday that he's hoping to get Whyle (concussion) back practicing this week, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
The second-year tight end has missed over a week with a concussion, but it appears he's nearing a return to the field after his head coach's comments Monday. Whyle appeared in 11 games in 2023, recording nine catches for 94 yards and one touchdown. He's expected to serve as the Titans' top backup tight end once he clears concussion protocol.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Could return for preseason finale
Head coach Brian Callahan said Sunday that Whyle remains in concussion protocol but could return to practice later in the week, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
It's not clear when Whyle sustained the concussion, as he did not suit up for the Titans' 16-15 win over the Seahawks on Saturday. Whyle is competing against Nick Vannett and Thomas Odukoya for the backup tight end job behind starter Chigoziem Okonkwo.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Put in concussion protocol
Whyle entered league concussion protocol Sunday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
It's not clear when Whyle suffered the head injury. In any case, it means he's probably not going to see the field during Tennessee's preseason finale and will likely have to wait until Week 1 of the regular season to suit up again.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Pushing Okonkwo for role
Whyle is listed as a co-starter at tight end on the Titans' first unofficial depth chart, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Whyle is entering his second year as a pro and looking to carve out an expanded role after playing only 152 offensive snaps in 2023. His 6-foot-7 frame makes him an intriguing option near the goal line and potentially on third downs. Whyle has also apparently impressed enough on the field to push Chigoziem Okonkwo for his starting role, and this will be a position to monitor for the rest of the preseason.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Back on field
Whyle (knee) participated in OTAs on Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Whyle closed last season on injured reserve, but he was back on the field Tuesday. The 2023 fifth-round selection looked bigger and sturdier than last year, according to Wyatt. Whyle will compete with Chigoziem Okonkwo and Nick Vannett for snaps and targets at tight end.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Shifts to IR
The Titans placed Whyle (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Whyle was originally listed as questionable for the Titans' Week 17 affair after sustaining a knee injury during Friday's practice, but it seems as if the issue is more serious than the team originally thought. The 24-year-old will miss the remainder of Tennessee's season, making way for Trevon Wesco and Kevin Rader to possibly see more work as reserve tight end options.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Nursing knee injury
Whyle (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
The 24-year-old was a late addition to the Titans' injury report, as he popped up as a limited participant in Friday's practice with a knee issue. If Whyle is unable to suit up in Week 17, expect Trevon Wesco to serve as Tennessee's No. 2 tight end.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Active Sunday
Whyle (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
The backup tight end was a full participant in practice all week and is now returning from a two-game absence. Whyle's availability should help the Titans with third tight end Trevon Wesco out due to a shin injury. Whyle has nine catches for 94 yards and a touchdown in 11 games this season.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Could return versus Seattle
Whyle (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Whyle was a full participant in all three practices this week, giving him a good chance of making his return from his two-game absence. His return would be welcome with fellow tight end Trevon Wesco (shin) also listed as questionable after missing the first two practices of the week.
