• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Logs full practice

  Rotowire Nov 15, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Tannehill is ready to return but will be serve in a backup role behind rookie Will Levis, who struggled the past two weeks after throwing four touchdown passes in his regular-season debut Week 8. Levis presumably would have to see his performance take even more of a turn for the worse to lose the job in December or January, as continued struggles also would have the effect of removing the Titans from playoff contention and making it less advantageous to go back to Tannehill, who likely isn't viewed as part of the organization's long-term plans at this point.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Inactive as expected

  Rotowire Nov 12, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. Tannehill is set to miss his third consecutive game with an ankle injury. Will Levis has taken over the starting job as a result, pushing Tannehill down the depth chart even once he is able to return. For now, Malik Willis will serve as the Titans' backup quarterback.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Not expected to play Sunday

  Rotowire Nov 12, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) is not expected to suit up for Sunday's road matchup against the Buccaneers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Tannehill continues to try and work his way back from the right high-ankle sprain that's caused him back-to-back absences, but things are trending in the direction of Malik Willis working as the top backup to Will Levis at Tampa Bay on Sunday. Official word on Tannehill's status will come 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. kickoff.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Questionable for Sunday's contest

  Rotowire Nov 10, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. As a result, head coach Mike Vrabel relayed Friday that the Titans' backup quarterback for the contest -- Tannehill or Malik Willis -- will be a game-time decision. Earlier this week, Vrabel named Will Levis the team's starting quarterback going forward.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Limited in return to practice

  Rotowire Nov 8, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Tannehill practiced for the first time since Week 6, but his status for this Sunday's game in Tampa Bay doesn't hold as much weight following head coach Mike Vrabel's announcement Tuesday that Will Levis will start at quarterback going forward. If healthy enough to play this Sunday in Tampa Bay, Tannehill will serve as the Titans' No. 2 quarterback ahead of Malik Willis.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Sitting out practice Tuesday

  Rotowire Oct 31, 2023

  Head coach Mike Vrabel said Tannehill (ankle) won't practice Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. "As of right now, I'd imagine it will be Will [Levis starting Thursday at Pittsburgh]," Vrabel told Turron Davenport of ESPN.com. Citing a source close to the situation, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reported Monday that Levis was on track to make a second consecutive start Week 9, so Vrabel's comments about the Titans' quarterback situation don't come as a major surprise. Barring dramatic improvement over the next couple of days in his recovery from the right high-ankle sprain he sustained in the Titans' Week 6 loss to the Ravens, Tannehill will be inactive for the second game in a row this week. The Titans will likely wait and see if Tannehill is able to do anything at Wednesday's practice before providing more clarity on his status heading into Thursday.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Not expected to start Thursday

  Rotowire Oct 30, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) is not expected to start Thursday versus Pittsburgh, with rookie Will Levis instead in line to lead Tennessee's offense, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Tannehill continues to recover from a right high-ankle sprain that kept him sidelined for Sunday's win over the Falcons. Levis, meanwhile, is coming off a four-TD NFL debut, so it would make little sense for the Titans' coaching staff to rush Tannehill back on a short week if he's anything less than 100 percent. In fact, if Levis manages to impress in prime time versus Pittsburgh, it might make little sense for Tennessee to turn back to Tannehill even when he does get healthy, given the veteran's putrid 2:6 TD:INT through six games.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Won't play Week 8

  Rotowire Oct 27, 2023

  Titans head coach Mike Vrabel confirmed Friday that Tannehill (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports. As anticipated, Tannehill won't be ready to play this weekend while he continues to recover from the right high-ankle sprain he suffered in the Titans' Week 6 loss to the Ravens before Tennessee went on bye for Week 7. Per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, Vrabel was unwilling to name a starting quarterback for Sunday, instead noting that he plans to have both Malik Willis and Will Levis get reps under center. After failing to practice in any fashion Week 8, Tannehill may struggle to gain clearance for Week 9, as the Titans are set to travel to Pittsburgh for a Thursday night game and are likely to hold walk-throughs or light practices leading up to that contest.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Not practicing again

  Rotowire Oct 26, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports. Per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, Tannehill is dealing with what he described as a right high-ankle sprain, an injury that leaves the quarterback unlikely to play Sunday against the Falcons. If Tannehill ends up sidelined this weekend, head coach Mike Vrabel has said that both Will Levis and Malik Willis will be in line to see snaps in the contest. Levis is expected to start in such a scenario and would likely be in store to take the majority of the snaps at quarterback.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Not practicing Wednesday

  Rotowire Oct 25, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Per Wyatt, Tannehill confirmed that he's dealing with a right high-ankle sprain, and even with the benefit of a Week 7 bye to recover, the quarterback may have a tough time gaining clearance for Sunday's game against the Falcons. If Tannehill is unavailable this weekend, head coach Mike Vrabel told Wyatt that both Will Levis and Malik Willis would be in line to see action Week 8. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Wednesday that the Titans are preparing Levis to start, though Vrabel wouldn't confirm as much and reiterated that both Levis and Willis could see time regardless of whom replaces Tannehill as the starter.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Not ready to practice yet

  Rotowire Oct 24, 2023

  Head coach Mike Vrabel said that Tannehill (ankle) won't practice Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Tannehill is considered unlikely to play Week 8 versus the Falcons, despite the fact that the Titans are coming off a bye, though he hasn't been ruled out yet. The veteran QB was forced to sit out the last quarter of Tennessee's loss to the Ravens in Week 6 due to a right high-ankle sprain, an injury that could require a multi-week absence. Vrabel also said he expects both Malik Willis and rookie second-round pick Will Levis to see the field versus Atlanta if Tannehill ultimately can't go.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Unlikely to be available Week 8

  Rotowire Oct 21, 2023

  Tannehill (ankle) hasn't yet been ruled out for the Titans' next game Oct. 29 against the Falcons, but he's considered unlikely to play coming out of the team's Week 7 bye, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Tannehill sat out the final quarter of the Titans' Week 6 loss to the Ravens in London after suffering a right high-ankle sprain. Though the sprain is to the same ankle that he had tightrope surgery on in December, the latest version of the injury isn't considered as significant and won't require another procedure. However, Tannehill is sporting a cast on his lower leg and is using crutches so as not to put any weight on his injured ankle, so he still looks like he could still require a multi-week recovery. Malik Willis dressed as the Titans' No. 2 quarterback in Week 6 and came on in relief of the injured Tannehill, but head coach Mike Vrabel hasn't revealed whether Willis or rookie second-round pick Will Levis would draw the starting nod Week 8 if Tannehill can't play.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Won't require ankle surgery

  Rotowire Oct 17, 2023

  Tannehill isn't expected to require surgery to address the right high-ankle sprain he sustained Sunday in the Titans' 24-16 loss to the Ravens, but he's without a definitive timeline for a return as Tennessee heads into its Week 7 bye, Jeff Darlington of ESPN reports. Tannehill suffered a similar injury to the same ankle last December and missed the final three games of the regular season after having tightrope surgery, but he looks set to recover from his newest ankle sprain with rest and rehab. According to Darlington, Tannehill is sporting a protective cast on the ankle, with head coach Mike Vrabel noting Monday that the signal-caller will get "treatment around the clock" before the team makes a decision on his availability heading into an Oct. 29 game against the Falcons in Week 8, per ESPN.com. Vrabel added that backups Malik Willis and Will Levis will both get extra work in during the bye week, but the coach wouldn't say which of the two quarterbacks would be in line to start if Tannehill ends up missing the Week 8 game.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: On crutches after Sunday's game

  Rotowire Oct 15, 2023

  Tannehill, who suffered a right ankle injury during Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Ravens in London, was on crutches following the contest, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Schefter adds that Tannehill is slated to undergo an MRI when the Titans return to the United States. Until the results of the MRI are read, the extent of the quarterback's injury likely won't be known. The Titans will be on bye Week 7, but at this stage, Tannehill's availability for the team's next game Oct. 29 versus the Falcons is up in the air. Malik Willis took over for Tannehill in the fourth quarter Sunday, completing four of five pass attempts for 74 yards while adding 17 yards on three carries and taking four sacks.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Plans to get MRI on ankle

  Rotowire Oct 15, 2023

  Tannehill said after Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Ravens in London that he'll undergo an MRI after exiting the contest in the fourth quarter with a right ankle injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. He completed eight of 16 pass attempts for 76 yards and an interception before departing. Tannehill limped off the field with the right ankle injury during the Titans' first possession of the second half, but he was able to check back into the contest for the next two drives while sporting a heavy tape job on the ankle. However, after a poor throw on the Titans' final drive of the third quarter resulted in a Geno Stone interception, Tannehill once again looked to be favoring the ankle and was carted to the locker room. Tannehill underwent X-rays while in the locker room, but the MRI should provide a clearer picture on the extent of the injury. With a bye on tap Week 7, Tannehill will have extra time to heal up from the injury before the Titans return to action Oct. 29 versus the Falcons.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Tweaks ankle, iffy to return

  Rotowire Oct 15, 2023

  Tannehill headed to the locker room on a cart in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Ravens with an apparent right ankle injury and is considered questionable to return, Jamie Erdahl of NFL Network reports. Tannehill initially appeared to suffer the injury during the Titans' first possession of the third quarter, but he returned to the field with his ankle taped up for the team's subsequent two drives. After Tannehill underthrew a ball for an interception late in the third quarter, the Titans decided to send Tannehill to the locker room for further evaluation. Malik Willis took over at quarterback for Tannehill, who may not be available to return to the contest. If Tannehill's day is in fact done, he'll finish with eight completions on 16 attempts for 76 yards and an interception.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Moves offense, no scores

  Rotowire Oct 9, 2023

  Tannehill completed 23 of 34 passes for 264 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Colts. Tannehill overcame a slow first half to deliver his highest passing yardage total of the season. He showed particular rapport with DeAndre Hopkins, as the duo connected for three completions of at least 20 yards. While Tannehill has averaged a solid 7.4 yards per attempt on 142 passes this season, he has only three total touchdowns across five games, as the focus of the Titans' offense remains on the rushing attack.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Barely cracks 100 yards

  Rotowire Sep 24, 2023

  Tannehill completed 13 of 25 passes for 104 yards without a touchdown, turnover or rushing attempt in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Browns. Tannehill threw for just 91 yards in the first half while getting sacked three times, including one on the final play of the half with the Titans in field-goal range but without a timeout. Things only got worse after halftime, as Tannehill added a meager 13 passing yards and got sacked twice more. Tennessee's beleaguered offensive line was overwhelmed by Cleveland's pass rush in what has been a common theme through three weeks. Tannehill will hope to get better protection in Week 4 against the Bengals.

• Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Sit in 2QB/Superflex (Start/Sit)

  Rotowire Sep 20, 2023

  Tannehill showed some life in Week 2 against the Chargers with 23.0 Fantasy points, and he needed that kind of game after scoring 2.4 points in Week 1 at New Orleans. He's back on the road this week, and the Browns have been great so far against Joe Burrow and Kenny Pickett, holding them to a combined 304 passing yards, one touchdown and one interception. The Titans offensive line should be tested in this game, and Tannehill could be running for his life. I would try to avoid him in most formats if you can.
