Titans' Van Jefferson: Placed on injured reserve
The Titans placed Jefferson (forearm) on injured reserve Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Jefferson was already ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jaguars, and his placement on injured reserve is a procedural move to open space on the Titans' 53-man roster for the return of Bryce Oliver (knee) from IR. Jefferson will end the 2025 season with 29 catches (on 52 targets) for 350 yards and one touchdown across 16 games. The sixth-year wideout will enter the offseason as a free agent.

Jefferson won't play in the Titans' season-finale against the Jaguars next weekend and could land on IR in order to free up a roster spot for the team. In his looming absence, Mason Kinsey and/or James Proche figure to handle added WR snaps behind Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike.

Jefferson (back) practiced fully Friday but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Jefferson trended in the right direction throughout the week, going from a non-participant Wednesday to limited Thursday before Friday's full session. The veteran wide receiver's status likely won't be confirmed until 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Titans' Van Jefferson: Upgrades to limited Thursday
Jefferson (back) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice.
Jefferson progressed to limited participation Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's practice session. The veteran wide receiver got hurt during Tennessee's loss to the 49ers this past Sunday. If Jefferson suits up Sunday against the Chiefs, he would likely continue to work as the third wide receiver behind rookie fourth-round picks Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike.

If Jefferson -- who has caught 24 passes for 280 yards and a TD in 14 contests to date -- is unavailable in Week 16, added snaps behind Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike would be available for James Proche and Mason Kinsey.

The wide receiver caught one pass for 43 yards on five targets before exiting. Jefferson tied for second on the team in targets for the game. At the moment, he is Tennessee's third receiver behind Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike, so his status will be worth monitoring as the practice week begins.

Titans' Van Jefferson: Catches first TD of 2025
Jefferson caught three passes on seven targets for 22 yards and a touchdown during the Titans' 16-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday.
Jefferson was thrust into a bigger role on offense following injuries to Calvin Ridley (fibula), Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) and Chimere Dike (chest). Jefferson ended up leading the Titans pass catchers with seven targets and helped tie the game at 13-13 late in the fourth quarter, when he hauled in a four-yard touchdown pass from Cam Ward. Ridley is out for the rest of the season due to a broken fibula, and Jefferson could be thrust into the Titans' WR1 role against the Seahawks in Week 12 if Ayomanor and Dike are unable to play.

Titans' Van Jefferson: Limited to one catch
Jefferson recorded one catch on four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chargers.
Jefferson maintained a significant role in the Tennessee offense with Calvin Ridley (hamstring) sidelined. He's managed at least four targets in four straight games, though Jefferson has managed only one reception in each of his last two contests. He should continue to get opportunities so long as Ridley is sidelined, but Jefferson's production will likely be sporadic.

Titans' Van Jefferson: Can't connect with Ward
Jefferson recorded one reception on eight targets for six yards in Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Colts.
Jefferson was on the field for 78 percent of offensive snaps with Calvin Ridley (hamstring) sidelined again. He managed to match Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike in targets, but Jefferson was extremely inefficient with that opportunity. Jefferson should continue to see an expanded role so long as Ridley is sidelined, but his fantasy value still remains very limited.
