Whyle (concussion) did not practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 24-year-old tight end out of Cincinnati recorded his second consecutive DNP at Thursday's practice, which increases the likelihood that he'll carry an injury designation into the weekend. Whyle has appeared in six games for the Titans this season, catching all four of his targets for 44 yards and one touchdown.

Whyle (concussion) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Whyle suffered a concussion in Week 6 prior to the Titans' bye week, but it looks like he has yet to clear the league's protocol. More clarity on his status for Sunday's game against the Falcons will come as the week progresses.

Whyle exited Sunday's game against the Ravens to be evaluated for a concussion, Nick Suss of the Nashville Tennessean reports.

EDGE Analysis

Per the report, Whyle, who caught his only target for 11 yards Sunday prior to his exit, is not slated to return to the contest. In his absence, Chigoziem Okonkwo, Trevon Wesco and Kevin Rader are available to handle the Titans' TE duties.

Whyle (ankle) was a full participant at practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Whyle exited Sunday's win over the Bengals early, but he's since fully recovered and should be good to go for Week 5 against the Colts. Before the injury, the rookie tight end had seen 18 snaps on offense, a career-high at that point, and saw his first two targets of the season, catching both for 26 yards and a touchdown.

Whyle (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Bengals due to an ankle injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Whyle caught both of his targets for 26 yards and a touchdown before leaving the contest. In his absence, Kevin Rader could see a few additional snaps behind Chigoziem Okonkwo and Trevon Wesco.

Whyle (ankle) wasn't included on Tennessee's first Week 1 injury report released Wednesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Whyle exited Friday's preseason game due to an ankle injury and is questionable to return, John Glennon of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Whyle (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Mike Moraitis of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Whyle (undisclosed) has been sidelined from practice since Friday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

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.

The Titans selected Whyle in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 147th overall.

EDGE Analysis

Whyle (6-foot-7, 248 pounds) could be a little slight with too poor of reach (31 and 1/2-inch arms) to hold up well as a three-down tight end, but he might be able to overcome his narrow frame thanks to his plus athleticism. The Cincinnati product ran a 4.69-second 40 at the combine and showed the ability to be a high-efficiency receiver on modest target volume, though his efficiency fell off a cliff when his target rate jumped in 2022 (8.1 YPT on 41 targets in 2021 down to 5.9 YPT on 55 targets in 2022). That should be fine in Tennessee, where it's unlikely that they'd need to depend on him as a frequent target, but if so it's just another reason why Whyle's fantasy upside is likely capped in Tennessee.
