Who are the Tennessee Titans starters post COVID outbreak?
By Will Lomas
Wide Receiver
Week 3 starters: Corey Davis, Adam Humphries and Cam Batson (all played 50% or more of the snaps)
Week 5 projections: Corey Davis, A.J. Brown and Kalif Raymond
There isn’t a position group more in flux than the Titans wide receivers who lose both Adam Humphries and Cam Batson to the COVID list. What helps a lot is that this should be the week the A.J. Brown returns to practice and Week 3 was the best performance of Kalif Raymond’s career.
I expect the team to run the ball more due to Raymond’s lack of a well-rounded game, but when you have Corey Davis and A.J. Brown, you do have the freedom to have limited guys on the field because of what that duo brings to your offense.
If Davis can stay as effective as he has been (on pace for 80 catches, 1,100 yards, and 6 TDs) and if A.J. Brown is just most of what he was last year, then this is probably a net improvement and I say that as someone who thinks that Adam Humphries has been huge this season.
