Whyle recorded five receptions (on five targets) for 37 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-27 loss to the Bengals. Both Whyle and Chigoziem Okonkwo were heavily involved in the Tennessee offense, with Whyle matching his season best of five targets. Whyle's work began with the Titans down multiple scores late in the third quarter, with the highlight being a 13-yard touchdown catch as time expired in the blowout loss. Whyle continues to have an offensive snap rate south of 30 percent in most recent games, though he has topped 30 receiving yards in consecutive contests.
Whyle recorded two receptions on two targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 10-6 loss to the Jaguars. Whyle has seen snap rate fluctuate in recent weeks, but he was on the field for a season-low five offensive snaps Sunday. Despite that, he recorded multiple receptions and his highest yardage total since Week 8. Whyle could grow into a larger role in future seasons, but for now, he remains a depth option at tight end for the Titans.
Whyle recorded one catch on two targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 20-17 overtime win against the Patriots. Whyle was on the field for a season-low 10 offensive snaps, as Nick Vannett and Chigoziem Okonkwo both saw expanded roles. Whule has 15 or fewer receiving yards in five of eight games on the campaign.
Whyle (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Whyle was a late addition to the Titans' injury report Saturday, but it looks like he is feeling well enough to give it a go. He is coming off two of his better games this season the last two weeks, logging five catches on six targets for 67 yards in total.
Whyle was added to Tennessee's injury report Saturday due to an illness, and he's now questionable for Sunday's contest against New England, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Whyle's addition to the injury report one day before Sunday's contest puts his chance of suiting up in considerable question, though it's not clear how severe his ailment is. The tight end has had two of his better games this season over the past two weeks, totaling five catches on six targets for 67 yards during that span. Nick Vannett could see more opportunities behind No. 1 tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo on Sunday if Whyle doesn't play, and David Martin-Robinson could suit up after being a healthy scratch in every game so far this season.
Whyle recorded two receptions on two targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 52-14 loss to the Lions. Whyle was on the field for 30 offensive snaps, his second-highest mark of the season, and earned multiple targets for the fourth time in seven contests. Chigoziem Okonkwo out-snapped him but made several mistakes, which could eventually lead to more playing time for Whyle. For now, Whyle remains irrelevant in most fantasy formats.
Whyle recorded three receptions on four targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Bills. Mason Rudolph got all three of his tight ends involved, and Whyle converted a first down on all three of his receptions. Sunday's performance marked Whyle's third multi-reception performance of the season and he could continue to see a slight uptick in production if Rudolph remains under center in Week 8 against the Lions.
Whyle recorded one catch on one target for five yards in Monday's 31-12 win over the Dolphins. Whyle earned a season-high 55 percent snap rate, which was the highest rate of the position group on the team. That didn't lead to much production as the Titans ran a run-heavy game script while holding a lead for the entire game. Whyle could see more receiving opportunity coming out of Tennessee's bye in a Week 6 matchup against the Colts.
Whyle recorded four receptions (on five targets) for 43 yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to Green Bay. Whyle was on the field for 47 percent of offensive snaps, a similar role to what he earned Week 2. However, he was more frequently involved as a pass catcher, finishing second on the team in targets and tied for second in receptions. He's likely to continue to split snaps with Chigoziem Okonkwo, but Whyle could be the more productive fantasy option moving forward.
