Titans' Josh Whyle: Finding field more often
Whyle recorded two receptions on five targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 20-6 loss to Tampa Bay.
Whyle got more involved in the offense, commanding a career-high five targets while also playing 27 offensive snaps. Chigoziem Okonkwo remains the top tight end in Tennessee, though the team has shown a willingness to play with two tight ends on the field regularly. That could result in increased usage for Whyle down the stretch as the Titans look to improve their offense.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Will suit up at Pittsburgh
Whyle (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Thursday's game at the Steelers.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Could return Week 9
Head coach Mike Vrabel noted Monday that Whyle (concussion) has a chance to return for the Titans' Week 9 contest against the Steelers on Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Whyle sustained a concussion in Week 6 against the Ravens and wasn't able to return for Week 8 despite the bye. The rookie tight end saw his snap count on offense steadily increase in Weeks 4 and 5, and he'd resume his role as the backup behind Chigoziem Okonkwo if he's able to return for Thursday's game. In six games this season, Whyle has four catches for 44 yards and a touchdown.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Won't play vs. Falcons
Whyle (concussion) is listed as out for Sunday's game versus Atlanta, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Even with the benefit of a Week 7 bye, Whyle will have to sit out at least one game as he recovers from the concussion he sustained in Week 6 against Baltimore. Kevin Rader will likely see increased snaps in Whyle's stead in Week 8.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Dodges injury report Wednesday
Whyle (ankle) wasn't included on Tennessee's first Week 1 injury report released Wednesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
The rookie fifth-round draft pick was forced out of the Titans' preseason finale with an ankle injury, but he looks to be back to full speed ahead of Week 1. Whyle isn't expected to hold a major role in the passing game in 2023 while he's stuck behind Chigoziem Okonkwo on the depth chart at tight end in what projects to be a run-first Tennessee offense.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Suffers apparent ankle injury
Whyle exited Friday's preseason game due to an ankle injury and is questionable to return, John Glennon of SI.com reports.
Whyle caught one of three targets for eight yards before suffering what appeared to be an ankle injury. The 23-year-old was picked in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft after he recorded 658 receiving yards on 58 receptions with nine touchdowns in his final two seasons at Cincinnati. He's expected to play a depth role in Tennessee's tight end room ahead of the coming season.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Back at practice
Whyle (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Mike Moraitis of USA Today reports.
Whyle had missed time early on in training camp due to an undisclosed injury, but the 2023 fifth-rounder is back in action and now set to compete for slotting in a Tennessee tight end corps that also includes Chigoziem Okonkwo and Trevon Wesco. While Okonkwo profiles as the team's top pass-catching option at the position as the regular season approaches, the 6-foot-7, 248-pound rookie could find himself on the deep league fantasy radar down the road if/when injuries hit.

Titans' Josh Whyle: Slow start to camp
Whyle (undisclosed) has been sidelined from practice since Friday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
The Titans used a fifth-round pick on Whyle in the 2023 NFL Draft, and his length at 6-foot-7 makes him a potentially interesting red-zone option. However, his inability to get on the field early in camp doesn't bode well for his potential opportunity during his rookie campaign. The exact nature of the issue is unclear.
