Not expected back in Week 7 McMath (undisclosed) is not expected to return for Week 7 versus the Colts, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.

Impact McMath has been out since Aug. 31 while on injured reserve with an unspecified injury. Head coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that the wide receiver wouldn't be back for Week 7, but he "might be back eventually". With the vague answer from Vrabel, it doesn't seem likely that McMath is a large part of Tennessee's game plan moving forward.

OCTOBER 13, 2022

Gathers 1.5 sacks in Sunday's win Simmons recorded five tackles (three solo), 1.5 sacks and one pass defensed during Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact Simmons' 1.5 sacks Sunday against Washington now brings his total up to 3.5 on the season. The 25-year-old pass rusher continues to play a prime role on Tennessee's defensive front, and he'll look to build off his strong Week 5 performance when the Titans return from their bye next Sunday against the Colts.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Produces eight stops in win Sunday Byard recorded eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 21-17 victory over the Commanders.

Impact It was another solid effort from the All-Pro safety, as his eight stops Sunday versus Washington now gives him a total of 37 on the year. The Titans are one of four teams to kick off the first bye weekend in 2022, meaning Byard should enter next Sunday's contest against the Colts with both confidence and a fresh set of legs, after he played every defensive snap in Week 5.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Snags game-clinching INT in Week 5 Long recorded 11 tackles (six solo) and one interception during Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact Long's game-sealing interception came with nine seconds remaining in the game when Washington was on Tennessee's two yard line down 21-17. The 25-year-old linebacker produced his best outing this season Sunday against the Commanders, as he amassed 11 tackles, which is good enough for the team-high in Week 5, as well as his season-high in that category. The 227-pounder played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps Sunday, and he'll now rest up during the Titans' bye this weekend before returning to action next Sunday against the Colts.

NFL odds Week 5: Wacky wins and bad beats

We got you covered from all the NFL wacky wins to bad beats. Here's a rundown on how bettors fared during this week's slate of games.

OCTOBER 11, 2022

Limited to three points Bullock made all three of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders. He did not attempt a field goal.

Impact Bullock wasn't asked to do much in Week 5, a continuation of his usage this season. He has attempted only two field goals combined across his last four games, instead limited to 10 extra-point attempts in that same span. For the season, Bullock has 24 total points across five matchups.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to one target Hooper hauled in his lone target for seven yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact Hooper was on the field for 33 snaps, his highest total since Week 1. However, he remained a minimal part of the Titans' passing attack and has racked up more than one reception in a game only once this season. Overall, Hooper has six catches for 55 yards across five games.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Records one reception Swaim recorded one catch on one target for five yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact As has typically been the case, Swaim led the Titans' tight end corps in snaps. However, he spent the vast majority of his time on the field blocking and has now earned one or fewer targets in three of five games this season. For the campaign, he has seven receptions for 43 yards and a touchdown.

Ron Rivera doesn't regret Commanders' Carson Wentz trade

Despite the team's 1-4 start, Commanders head coach Ron Rivera has "no regrets" about acquiring Carson Wentz.

OCTOBER 11, 2022

Makes one catch Philips recorded one reception on two targets for seven yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact Philips saw a jump in his snap rate due to the absence of Treylon Burks (toe), but he was still relatively uninvolved in the offense. Since recording six catches for 66 yards in his first game as a pro, Philips has only two receptions for 12 yards across his last three matchups.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies receiving score Hilliard carried the ball once for zero yards but chipped in four receptions on five targets for 23 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact Hilliard wasn't involved as a rusher, but he continued to produce as a pass catcher out of the Tennessee backfield. He scored the Titans' first touchdown of the game on a 13-yard reception, spelling Derrick Henry after he made a 24-yard catch of his own. Though Hilliard has only five rushing attempts in four games this season, he has multiple receptions on three occasions.

OCTOBER 10, 2022

Makes 61-yard catch Westbrook-Ikhine recorded two receptions on three targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact Westbrook-Ikhine finished third on the team and second among wide receivers Sunday. He provided a needed offensive spark for the team with a 61-yard reception late in the third quarter that helped set up the game-winning touchdown. Despite that, Westbrook-Ikhine has yet to top three catches in a game this season and had only 66 total receiving yards prior to Sunday's effort.

OCTOBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet performance in victory Tannehill completed 15 of 25 passes for 181 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Commanders.

Impact Tannehill has been asked to do very little for the Titans this season, with the offense instead running through Derrick Henry. He has now attempted fewer than 30 passes in each of Tennessee's last four games, three of which have been wins. While Tannehill does what is asked of him effectively, it doesn't translate to impressive stat lines, as he has failed to top 200 passing yards or throw for multiple touchdowns in three of his five games on the campaign.
