The Tennessee Titans (0-4) will visit the Arizona Cardinals (2-2) in Week 5. 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 5?
Okonkwo is not on the injury report and 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 Chig Okonkwo in Week 5?
Patience is important for the Titans to have as this Cam Ward-led unit takes their lumps, but we don’t have to be along for the ride.
Chig Okonkwo managed just four yards on three targets against the Texans on Sunday and hasn’t scored a touchdown in over 10 months.
With virtually no scoring equity and only so much yardage to chase through the air in this offense as a whole (one game over 35 yards for Okonkwo), you’re better off chasing change (Theo Wander in New York) or matchup (Mason Taylor vs. Dallas) if you’re in a deeper league and need help.
