Whyle (knee) Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site Thursday, Jim Wyatt reports.
EDGE Analysis
Whyle remains sidelined from the knee injury he suffered against the Colts on Sunday, which casts serious doubt about his potential for suiting up Week 14 against the Dolphins. However, with the game not taking place until Monday, the rookie tight end will have an extra day to recover ahead of the matchup.

Whyle (knee) isn't believed to be dealing with a season-ending injury after exiting Sunday's game against the Colts, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Whyle departed Sunday's matchup in the fourth quarter, and it appears likely that he'll be able to return at some point later this season. However, the full extent of his injury isn't yet clear, and his status for next Monday's matchup against Miami remains to be seen.

Whyle has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Colts with a right knee injury, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Whyle left for the locker room with Derrick Henry (concussion) in the fourth quarter, and the former has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game. Trevon Wesco and Kevin Rader will fill in as the backup tight ends behind Chigoziem Okonkwo in Whyle's absence.

Whyle recorded two receptions on five targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 20-6 loss to Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Whyle got more involved in the offense, commanding a career-high five targets while also playing 27 offensive snaps. Chig 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.

Whyle (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Thursday's game at the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis

Head coach Mike Vrabel noted Monday that Whyle (concussion) has a chance to return for their Week 9 contest against the Steelers on Thursday night, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Whyle (concussion) is listed as out for Sunday's game versus Atlanta, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.
