The Tennessee Titans will host the Seattle Seahawks in Week 12. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Chig Okonkwo.
Is Chig Okonkwo Playing in Week 12?
Okonkwo is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Titans’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Okonkwo in Week 12?
We’ve seen Chig Okonkwo catch 32 of 42 targets this season (nine of 10 over the past month), something that would generally have me excited when coming from a developmental quarterback, but there just isn’t a shred of upside to chase and that’s why he’s at the very low-end of streamable options for me, even with the Calvin Ridley injury.
For the season, Okonkwo has a 5.5-yard aDOT and zero end zone targets. In fact. 71.4% of his looks this season have come on the wrong half of the field. It’s not that he’s running bad on variance in terms of scoring chances; it’s that he plays for a bad team, and that’s not going to change.
Seattle hasn’t allowed more than 22 points in a game since Week 5, so no, I don’t think this is the week that Cam Ward puts it all together.
