Good to go vs. Bolts Chestnut (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Impact Chestnut was limited for the Titans' final two practices of the week due to a foot injury, but it's not severe enough to prevent him from suiting up Sunday. Chestnut will be Tennessee's No. 3 running back behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears.

Questionable for Week 10 Chestnut (foot) was limited in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Impact Chestnut popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a foot issue, which limited him over the last two practices. If Chestnut cannot play Sunday, the Titans may elevate Jabari Small to serve as the No. 3 running back behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears.

Working through foot injury Chestnut (foot) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Chestnut was able to log a full practice Wednesday, but he was limited in Thursday's session due to a foot issue.

Chesnut has served as the Titans' No. 2 running back behind Tony Pollard (foot) for the last three games while Tyjae Spears was sidelined due to a hamstring injury. Over that span, Chestnut has logged 15 carries for 69 yards while adding one catch for nine yards.

Tallies seven carries Chestnut rushed the ball seven times for 32 yards in Sunday's 52-14 loss to the Lions.

Impact Tyjae Spears (hamstring) was sidelined for a second consecutive week, which allowed Chestnut to see the highest carry total of his career. All of his rushing attempts came in the fourth quarter of the blowout loss, and he'll return to a special-teams role when Spears can return.

Earns four touches Chestnut rushed the ball three times for 15 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Bills. He added one reception on one target for nine yards.

Impact With Tyjae Spears (hamstring) sidelined, Chestnut stepped up as the backup to Tony Pollard. He saw a season-high four touches and eight offensive snaps. However, even if Spears remains sidelined for a Week 8 matchup against the Lions, Chestnut will almost certainly maintain a muted role.

OCTOBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Earns one offensive snap Chestnut played one offensive snap and 17 on special teams in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Jets.

Impact Chestnut played exclusively on special teams in Week 1 and saw a similar role in Week 2. He did take the field for his first offensive snap with Tyjae Spears (ankle) sidelined, and Chestnut could enter a Week 3 matchup against Green Bay as the primary backup to Tony Pollard.

SEPTEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Plays exclusively on special teams Chestnut played 21 special teams snaps in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Bears.

Impact Chestnut made the Titans' roster as the third running back but he didn't see an offensive snap in Week 1. So long as Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears remain healthy, that is likely to remain the case.

SEPTEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Heavy workload against Seahawks Chestnut rushed the ball 13 times for 45 yards in Saturday's 16-15 preseason win over the Seahawks. He added two receptions on two targets for 29 yards.

Impact The Titans sat both Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears, leaving Hassan Haskins and Chestnut as the top backs available. Chestnut was utilized as the starter and carried a heavy workload. The majority of his yardage came on a 22-yard rush late in the second quarter, though he also led off the team's first possession with a 15-yard reception. Chestnut could begin the season third on the running back depth chart, but that won't translate to much work out of the backfield.
