Full practice session Thursday
Dike (quad) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: Dike was limited during Wednesday's session, but the wideout's return to a full practice Thursday clears the way for him to be available for Sunday's game against the Browns. Despite being on the field for 76 percent of the Titans' snaps on offense in the team's Week 13 loss to the Jaguars, Dike caught just one of his four targets for eight yards and carried once for one yard in the contest, though he did maintain his key role in the return game. In terms of his Week 14 fantasy lineup…read more

Logs limited practice Wednesday
Dike (quad) was limited at practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Dike was on the field for 76 percent of the Titans' snaps on offense in the team's Week 13 loss to the Jaguars, a game in which the wideout caught just one of his four targets for eight yards and carried once for one yard. Dike has two more chances to work fully before Tennessee's Week 14 injury statuses are posted Friday.

Primary impact on special teams
Dike recorded one catch (on four targets) for eight yards in Sunday's 25-3 loss to the Jaguars. He also had five punt returns for 76 yards and three kickoff returns for 76 yards.
Analysis: Dike's inconsistency this season has mirrored that of the Tennessee offense as a whole, as he has at least 40 receiving yards in three of his last six games and under 20 in the remaining three. While his receiving line was a disappointment, Dike has gained a more consistent role in the offense, commanding at least four targets in four of his last six games. He also remains the team's primary returner on special teams.

Scores twice in loss
Dike recorded five receptions on seven targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Seahawks. He added a punt return for 90 yards and a touchdown and five kickoff returns for 98 yards.
Analysis: Dike was at the center of Tennessee's second-half comeback effort, which began with his 90-yard punt return for a score. He also brought the Titans within six points on a one-yard touchdown catch late in the fourth quarter. Dike took advantage of the absence of Calvin Ridley (leg) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring), and he should play a key role in the offense for the rest of his rookie campaign.

Could lead depleted Titans WR room
Dike (chest) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, while Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) has been ruled out, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The Titans are without Calvin Ridley (fibula) for the rest of the season, and Ayomanor will join him on the sidelines Sunday. Their absences could open the door for Dike and Van Jefferson to see more targets, with Mason Kinsey and James Proche also vying for increased opportunities. Dike posted 163 receiving yards and a touchdown in a two-game span Weeks 7 and 8, but he hasn't exceeded 17 receiving yards in any other game.

Good to go
Dike (chest) was a full participant in practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Dike missed the end of Sunday's 16-13 loss to Houston but is fine for Week 12 against Seattle. With Calvin Ridley (leg) out of the season and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) not practicing, Dike and Van Jefferson may be the top WRs for Tennessee this Sunday. Mason Kinsey and James Proche are the other healthy options on the active roster.

Returns to practice
Dike (chest) returned to practice Wednesday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: Dike was evaluated for a head injury during Sunday's 16-13 loss to Houston, and while he cleared concussion protocol, he missed the rest of the game with a chest injury. A quick return to practice suggests he's on track to play Sunday against the Seahawks, whereas teammate Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday. Fellow Titans wideout Calvin Ridley (leg) is out for the season, leaving Ayomanor, Dike and Van Jefferson as the top three wide receivers.

Dealing with chest issue
Dike cleared concussion protocol but sustained a chest contusion during Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Texans, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
Analysis: Dike was evaluated for a concussion and ruled out at halftime, but it turns out he is dealing with a different issue, this one with his chest. The rookie wideout came into Week 11 with 21 catches (on 33 targets) for 194 yards and one touchdown over nine games. Veteran wideout Calvin Ridley, who was the team's second-leading receiver coming into Sunday, also sustained a season-ending broken fibula, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN.com. Dike will have a week to recover before the Week 12…read more

Won't return Sunday
Dike (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game against the Texans.
Analysis: With Calvin Ridley (ankle) also ruled out for the rest of the contest, Elic Ayomanor, Van Jefferson and Mason Kinsey are now slated to handle the Titans' WR duties. Dike and Ridley will thus target a return to action next Sunday against the Seahawks.

Impact on special teams
Dike recorded one catch on three targets for five yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chargers. He also returned three punts for 98 yards and a touchdown, as well as four kickoffs for 117 yards.
Analysis: Dike had been breaking out as a receiver in recent weeks, but he showcased his overall playmaking ability in Sunday's loss. He returned a punt 67 yards for a touchdown late in the first quarter, bouncing off a few tacklers before streaking down the right sideline into the end zone. Dike otherwise took a disappointing step back as a pass catcher, as this marked his first game without multiple catches since Week 4.

Leading receivier on eight targets
Dike corralled seven of eight targets for 93 yards while taking his only carry for one yard in Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Dike was able to follow up his first career touchdown in Week 8 with a new career high in receiving yards Sunday. The Florida product has seen his role balloon in the two games following head coach Brian Callahan's departure, with 163 of the rookie's 189 receiving yards this season coming in the Titans' last two contests. Dike has quickly developed a strong rapport with rookie QB Cam Ward, making the former an intriguing fantasy option against the Chargers next Sunday. His Week 9 value will be…read more

First career touchdown
Dike recorded four catches on four targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 31-13 win over the Patriots. He added one rush for minus-one yard, three kick returns for 84 yards and one punt return for 15 yards.
Analysis: Elic Ayomanor was projected to take on an increased role in the absence of Calvin Ridley (hamstring), though it was Dike who had a breakout performance. He accounted for most of his production with consecutive receptions of 18 and 38 yards on Tennessee's second offensive possession, the latter of which was his first touchdown as a pro. Dike has performed relatively well on special teams for most of the season, and he could continue to expand his offensive role as the campaign progresses.

Held to eight yards
Dike recorded two receptions on three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Raiders. He also returned three kickoffs for 66 yards.
Analysis: It was a mixed performance for Dike, who recorded a career-best 54 percent offensive snap rate. However, he earned only three targets and was inefficient with the opportunity. Dike has now been held to single-digit yards from scrimmage in five of six games this season.

Role continues to expand
Dike recorded two receptions on five targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 22-21 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Dike matched his season high in targets while also surpassing a 50 percent offensive snap rate for the first time in his career. His stat line wasn't particularly notable, but he did finish in a three-way tie for the team lead in targets. Dike will likely remain buried in priority in the offense behind Calvin Ridley, Elic Ayomanor and Chig Okonkwo, so there's no clear path to Dike contributing more consistently despite some positive signs regarding his involvement.

Not targeted in Week 4
Dike was not targeted in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Texans. He recorded one rush for minus-four yards.
Analysis: Dike was on the field for 35 percent of offensive snaps, but his only impact on the game came on special teams. He remained Tennessee's primary kick returner and averaged 23.5 yards on six attempts.

Stays involved
Dike recorded three receptions on four targets for two yards in Sunday's 41-20 loss to the Colts. He added two rushes for three yards as well as six kick returns for 162 yards.
Analysis: Dike looked to have his first career touchdown on a jet sweep midway through the third quarter, though the play was reviewed and it was determined he went out of bounds at the one-yard line. He also commanded four targets for the second consecutive game, though his increased role has resulted in only one total receiving yard on five catches.

First catches as pro
Dike recorded two catches on five targets for minus-one yard in Sunday's 33-19 loss to the Rams. He added two rushes for nine yards.
Analysis: Dike saw a spike in his role in the Titans' offense, logging 27 snaps and four total touches. He didn't contribute much with the opportunity, though it was still encouraging to see him gain his footing in the offense early in his rookie campaign.

Larger role incoming?
Head coach Brian Callahan told reporters Friday that Dike has earned more opportunities as a wide receiver, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Tennessee's wide receiver corps underwhelmed in the Week 1 loss to the Broncos, but Dike emerged as one of the team's few bright spots. The 2024 fourth-round pick from Florida tallied 156 total return yards, including a 71-yard kickoff return to put the Titans in field-goal range right before halftime. Callahan told reporters that he's been impressed with Dike's play thus far, suggesting his offensive snap share will increase in Week 2 against the Rams. He figures to slot in as the Titans'…read more

Primary impact on special teams
Dike did not record a catch on his lone target in Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Broncos. He added one rush for nine yards.
Analysis: Dike got his lone touch on a play from scrimmage on an end around early in the second quarter. However, he made his presence felt as a returner, picking up 144 yards on four kickoff returns and 12 yards on one punt return. Dike made a significant impact just before halftime, when he returned a kick 71 yards to allow the Titans to convert a field goal with six seconds remaining in the second quarter.

Will be Tennessee's returner
Dike will be the Titans' punt returner this season, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Dike will also return kickoffs, along with Bryce Oliver. While Dike's offensive role remains to be seen behind Calvin Ridley (soreness), Tyler Lockett and fellow rookie Elic Ayomanor, it does sound like he'll at least be counted on to handle plenty of returns for Tennessee.

Limited impact in preseason finale
Dike recorded one catch on two targets for one yard in Friday's 23-13 preseason win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Dike wasn't a starter even with Calvin Ridley (soreness) sidelined, and the former appears to be working clearly behind fellow rookie Elic Ayomanor. There's little question that Dike will make the roster, but his primary role could initially come on special teams. Per Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com, coach Brian Callahan praised Dike for his work as a returner following Friday's contest, which was highlighted by a 36-yard kick return.

Held catchless Friday
Dike failed to bring in either of his targets in Friday's 23-20 preseason win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Dike got some run with Cameron Ward and the rest of the first-team offense Friday after entering with the second unit against Tampa Bay last week. The fourth-round rookie failed to haul in either of the targets hurled his way by Ward, giving Dike just one reception through two exhibition contests. The Florida product seems to be sitting behind Van Jefferson and fellow rookie Elic Ayomanor in the WR pecking order as the regular season inches closer.

Rotates in after Ayomanor
Dike recorded one reception (on two targets) for six yards in Saturday's 29-7 preseason loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Dike received his first target early in the third quarter, notably rotating in after Elic Ayomanor and Van Jefferson. His first opportunity was a deep shot from Brandon Allen, and Dike then hauled in his next target for a six-yard gain. Dike also returned one kickoff for 32 yards, which could be one of his primary roles to begin the regular season.
