Burks caught four of seven targets for 19 yards in Saturday's 20-16 loss to the Jaguars.
What it means:
Burks led all Tennessee pass catchers in targets Saturday, but the rookie was unable to make much noise in the contest. The 22-year-old showed flashes of great potential this season, giving the Titans hope that he can fill the void left by the departure of A.J. Brown before this season. Burks finished the 2022 campaign with 33 catches for 444 yards and a touchdown. He added four rushing attempts for 47 yards. The wideout played just 11 games, missing time due to injury. Heading into the 2023 season, Burks has the opportunity to build upon some of his early success and compete for top billing on the Titans' wide receiver depth chart.
Burks (groin) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Jaguars.
What it means:
Burks was added to the Titans' Week 18 injury report Wednesday, after a groin injury resulted in him being limited at practice that day. After not participating in Thursday's session, the wideout was deemed questionable by the Titans, but the 2022 first-rounder will give it a go Saturday in a game that will decide the AFC South title. Assuming no in-game setbacks, Burks is slated to remain a key target for starting QB Joshua Dobbs. During Week 17 action, Burks caught four of his eight targets from Dobbs for 66 yards in Tennessee's 27-13 loss to the Cowboys.
Tennessee's Treylon Burks (groin) active for Week 18's game versus Jaguars
What it means:
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (groin) is available for Week 18's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Burks will suit up for Tennessee's division deciding contest despite being listed as questionable. In a matchup against a Jaguars' team allowing 27.3 FanDuel points per game to wideouts, our models project Burks to score 8.1 FanDuel points.
Burks' projection includes 4.1 receptions for 42.6 yards on 6.8 targets.
Treylon Burks (groin) questionable Week 18 for Titans
What it means:
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (groin) is questionable for Week 18 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Treylon didn't practice on Thursday after being added to the injury report on Wednesday, but Titans head coach Mike Vrabel indicated that he expects the rookie receiver to play. Chigozeim Okonkwo and Robert Woods will be the primary beneficiaries if Burks is unavailable. Burks caught 4 passes on 8 targets for a team-high 66 yards last Thursday in Josh Dobbs' first start for the Titans.
numberFire's models project Burks for 6.2 targets, 3.8 receptions, and 40.3 yards on Saturday. He has a $6,400 salary on FanDuel and is the WR44 in our Week 18 rankings. Per our adjusted season-long team rankings, the Jaguars have the No. 27 pass defense and No. 10 run defense in the league, providing a pass funnel for the Titans.
Burks (groin) is listed as questionable for Saturday night's game against the Jaguars after not practicing Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
What it means:
The wideout was added to the Titans' Week 18 injury report after being listed as limited at Wednesday's practice. While Burks didn't participate in Thursday's session, coach Mike Vrabel subsequently noted of the 2022 first-rounder, "I think he'll be okay." Given that the AFC South title is on the line Saturday, we'd expect Burks to do everything he can to be available for the contest. Official confirmation of his status will arrive once Tennessee's inactives are posted ahead of the team's 8:15 ET kickoff.
Burks (groin) wasn't spotted during the media-access portion of Thursday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
What it means:
Burks practiced fully Tuesday, but was listed as limited Wednesday. It remains to be seen if the wideout makes an appearance on the field as the Titans' current practice progresses, but in any case added context with regard to his status for Saturday's game against the Jaguars is slated to arrive once the team's final Week 18 injury report is posted later Thursday.
