Decker (illness) was targeted just three times in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Bengals, catching two for 19 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Decker and Taywan Taylor got three targets apiece while Corey Davis and Rishard Matthews saw a combined 17 at the wide receiver position. While Decker's history of red-zone success suggests he's capable of making a late-season push, the veteran wide receiver doesn't appear to be a major cog in this offense now that Davis is healthy.

Decker (illness) practiced fully Friday, paving the way for him to play Sunday against the Bengals, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Decker caught three of his four targets for 21 yards last Sunday against the Ravens, while salvaging his day from a fantasy perspective with a TD in the contest. His upside on that front could take a hit beginning Sunday, however, with rookie Corey Davis' role in the Tennessee offense liable to grow in the coming weeks.

Decker (illness) did not practice Thursday, Jason Wolf of The Tennessean reports.
EDGE Analysis
We'll revisit Decker's status Friday, but we suspect that he'll practice in some capacity during the Titans' final session of the week in advance of Sunday's game against the Bengals. Decker hauled in three of his four targets for 21 yards and a TD in this past Sunday's win over the Ravens, but the veteran wideout's fantasy upside may take a hit this week, with the workload of promising rookie rookie Corey Davis likely to grow in the coming weeks.

Decker was held out of Wednesday's practice with an illness, Jason Wolf of The Tennessean reports.
EDGE Analysis
Decker should have plenty of time to recover before Sunday's game against Cincinnati, but his offensive involvement is headed in the wrong direction now that Corey Davis is healthy. The 30-year-old was fortunate to catch a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Ravens, considering he drew four targets while playing just 44 percent of the offensive snaps. Davis (75 percent) and Rishard Matthews (81 percent) both got far more playing time.

Decker caught three of four targets for 21 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Ravens.
EDGE Analysis
Decker's 11-yard touchdown with 3:58 to play gave his team an insurmountable 10-point lead. Quarterback Marcus Mariota and Decker came into this season ranked near the top at their respective positions in red-zone proficiency over the past few years, but this was the first time the pair linked up for a touchdown this season. Decker also set up a Derrick Henry rushing score by getting the ball down to the one-yard line on a second-quarter catch, so it looks like the veteran receiver's red-zone chemistry with Mariota improved during last week's bye.

Decker failed to haul in either of his two targets in Sunday's 12-9 overtime win at Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
This was a bizarre performance from the veteran wide receiver against a subpar defense, especially coming off a Monday Night Football outing in which he led his team with seven catches for 88 yards. Decker still hasn't found the end zone this year and will likely cede snaps to rookie first-rounder Corey Davis (hamstring) moving forward, as Davis is projected to return after Tennessee's Week 8 bye.

Decker caught seven of nine targets for 88 yards in Monday night's 36-22 win over the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Decker led the Titans across the board in receiving, topping the five-catch and 50-yard marks for the first time through six games in Tennessee. Although rookie Taywan Taylor caught the team's lone touchdown of the night, Decker will be happy with his improvement and look to build on Monday's performance against a dreadful Browns team this Sunday.

Decker caught four of six targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Decker tied Rishard Matthews for the team lead in targets and receiving yards, but that's more an indictment of Tennessee's passing game sans starting quarterback Marcus Mariota (hamstring) than a significant accomplishment on Decker's part. The offseason free agent acquisition hasn't made much of an impact yet despite being given every opportunity to do so, and will be fighting an uphill battle as long as Mariota remains sidelined.

Decker caught both of his targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 57-14 loss at Houston.
EDGE Analysis
Decker was overshadowed by Rishard Matthews and tight end Delanie Walker, who saw eight and seven targets, respectively. He has just 12 catches through four weeks and is yet to get into the end zone after scoring 43 touchdowns in 65 games over the previous five seasons.

WR FA
Decker caught four of five targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 33-27 win over the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Decker also had a couple more targets called back due to offensive pass interference penalties he committed against cornerback Richard Sherman. Working largely on the outside with Corey Davis (hamstring) sidelined, Decker drew the majority of Sherman's attention, leaving fellow wide receiver Rishard Matthews free to rampage for 87 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. While he's far from the fastest player at his position, Decker's physicality and route running make him a key cog in Tennessee's diverse passing attack.
