Gunnar Helm Dynasty Value

Titans TE Chig Okonkwo (foot) went from a limited practice on Wednesday to no practice on Thursday. We don't have any details, but his status for this weekend's game vs. the Chargers seems uncertain. Okonkwo's absence would likely mean a playing-time boost for TE Gunnar Helm, although he'd still fall short of fantasy viability in this struggling Titans offense.

If you had to start Titans TE Chig Okonkwo in Week 5 -- or even if you just see his PPR score on your bench -- then you're probably pleased with his 4-48 receiving line. That marked a rebound from his 1-catch Week 4 and gives him three games of 4+ catches among the past four weeks. Those aren't big numbers, but they're solid for a TE whose rookie QB has completed just 51.8% of his passes through five weeks. But Sunday also featured a negative development for Okonkwo's fantasy outlook: the emergence of rookie TE Gunnar Helm.
