Titans first-round WR Treylon Burks, who left yesterday’s game with a foot injury, has been diagnosed with turf toe. No surgery is necessary, just rehab. But Burks will miss some time.

The Tennessee WR depth chart already looked suspect, and this won't help matters. It's good news that Burks will avoid IR, but clearly not a positive for his continued development. Robert Woods hasn't had quite the year that was forecasted in the preseason, but this could afford him an opportunity to demand a more significant workload.

Titans WR Treylon Burks suffered an apparent foot injury during Sunday's game against the Colts and was carted off the field.

Burks caught two passes for 14 yards before the injury. The hope is the cart was just precautionary but he is out for the rest of the game.

Offensive coordinator Todd Downing wants to get Treylon Burks more opportunities with the ball in his hands to take advantage of his yards after the catch ability.

Burks had just two targets in Week 3, while RB Derrick Henry had five. The good news is the story added Downing said Burks has been growing every week and generating confidence with the coaching staff because of how he's taken advantage of the opportunities that have come his way. The play-action pass across the middle that used to result in touchdowns for A.J. Brown are now earmarked for Burks. Ryan Tannehill called Burks a big, strong, physical receiver with great hands and good body control.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks has impressed in camp.

Burks has had an impressive camp thus far, though it has not been without some rookie mistakes. He is currently splitting time with the first, second, and third team offenses. This strategy should allow him to learn the different wide receiver positions and build chemistry with potential QB-of-the-future in Malik Willis and incumbent Ryan Tannehill. Fellow rookie Kyle Phillips has generated more buzz this offseason for his near-immediate ascension into three-wide sets, but that does not mean Burks has not been impressive in his own right. Outside of an outright disastrous preseason, Burks should supplant Nick Westbrook-Ikhine in two wide sets by Week 1. Burks is currently our 49th-ranked receiver.

Much-needed positive reports for first-year wide receiver Treylon Burks after he missed minicamp because of asthma and conditioning issues.

Any news is good news after Burks was unable to see the field during rookie minicamp, partially due to issues with inhaler-timing. It seems he now has that under control and will have a chance to carve out a role in an offense in desperate need to fill some target share holes. Currently ranked as our WR49, so he has plenty of room to make up.
