Titans DT Jeffery Simmons is active for today's game against the Texans. He has been out since Week 7 because of a hamstring injury and entered the day questionable. But Simmons should be ready for planned IDP usage in a high-upside sack matchup.

Titans DT Jeffery Simmons says he expects to be ready to play after the team's Week 5 bye. Simmons missed Monday night's win over the Dolphins with a left-elbow injury that he said was a torn ligament, according to ESPN's Turron Davenport. "I feel much better right now, much better today," Simmons said. "Going into this bye week will be good for me to keep my conditioning up and with my elbow. I know I'll be ready to roll against the Colts."

Titans CB L'Jarius Sneed (hamstring) and S Amani Hooker (face) are active for tonight's game against the Dolphins. DT Jeffery Simmons (elbow) is inactive as expected. He entered the night doubtful.

The Titans are likely to be without DT Jeffery Simmons on Monday night against the Dolphins. He's doubtful with an elbow injury. They also might miss CB L'Jarius Sneed and/or S Amani Hooker. Sneed is questionable with a hamstring issue. He had been listed for just a rest day earlier in the week but turned up limited Saturday. Hooker is questionable because of a gash on his right cheek that required eight stitches. The team also placed CB Chidobe Awuzie on IR Saturday with a groin injury. Tennessee's D remains in play for fantasy use because of the QB trouble in Miami. But the injuries add downside risk.

Titans DT Jeffery Simmons (knee) will miss his third straight game Sunday against the Seahawks. That's a big blow to a run defense that struggled without him the past two weeks. Tennessee allowed 148 rushing yards to Houston and 158 to Miami the game before. The matchup certainly improves for Seattle RB Kenneth Walker III. Tennessee has also ruled out S Amani Hooker (knee), S K'Von Wallace (quad), LB Jack Gibbens (back), and CB Sean Murphy-Bunting (hip). It could be a nice week for the entire Seattle offense.

The Titans have ruled DT Jeffery Simmons (knee) out for Sunday's game against the Texans. It'll be the second straight missed game for Simmons, who has yet to practice since sustaining the injury. That casts doubt on his Week 16 status as well. Tennessee allowed 158 rushing yards to the Dolphins with Simmons out of the lineup last week. That plus Houston likely being without QB C.J. Stroud (concussion) add upside to Texans RBs Dameon Pierce and Devin Singletary. The Titans would be in even worse shape without DE Denico Autry. He's questionable with a knee injury after missing practice Wednesday and Friday (with a limited Thursday in between). We'll check Autry's status Sunday.

The Titans have ruled DT Jeffery Simmons (knee) out for Monday night's game against the Dolphins. That's bad for both the Tennessee run defense and pass rush. Of course, all the potentially affected Miami offensive pieces have already been sitting inside fantasy-starter territory for most lineups. Check your Team Intel page for your best options.

Titans DT Jeffery Simmons is dealing with a shoulder injury that kept him out of Wednesday's practice and limited him Thursday and Friday. But he carries no designation on the team's final injury report and thus looks ready to go for Sunday's game against the Ravens in London.

In another clear sign that the Titans are surrendering Thursday night's game to the Cowboys, the team announced Wednesday that basically the entire defense is out or doubtful. DT Jeffery Simmons, S Amani Hooker, EDGE Bud Dupree, LB Dylan Cole and LB Zach Cunningham are out. DL Denico Autry and CB Kristian Fulton are doubtful, which is really just a wishy-washy way of saying "out." LB Monty Rice, CB Roger McCready and S Andrew Adams like just about the only playable pieces for IDP leagues.
