Charlie Whitehurst

Titans rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger has completed 31-of-44 passes for 417 yards and a touchdown over the last two weeks while Charlie Whitehurst has been out of the lineup with an injury to his throwing hand.

That isn’t enough to push him ahead of Whitehurst on the depth chart, however. Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt said that Whitehurst remains the No. 2 behind Jake Locker to start the season.

“Charlie’s had a very good preseason, too, and a very good camp,” Whisenhunt said, via the Tennessean. “I’ve said Charlie was the two coming in, and I don’t think that is going to change.”

Fade play to Titans WR Justin Hunter 'all but unstoppable'

Throughout training camp and in the preseason, Titans wide receiver Justin Hunter has made the fade pattern look all too easy.

When the Titans get anywhere near the goal line, quarterback Jake Locker simply lofts a soft spiral toward the corner of the end zone. That's when the 6-foot-4, 203-pound Hunter turns into a jack-in-the-box, leaping over defenders to haul in a touchdown pass – just as he did in last Friday's loss to the New Orleans Saints.

It's been all but unstoppable so far.

Fantasy Impact: 

As a rookie, Hunter checked in with the #18 FP/T (1.41), which is encouraging, especially if he’s able to beat out Nate Washington and get on the field as more than a just a passing-down specialist. He only played 36% of the team’s snaps, while Washington played 82%. The good news is that under then-OC Ken Whisenhunt, Keenan Allen, Vincent Brown and Eddie Royal all played at least 67% of the Chargers’ snaps. Hunter's prowess in the redzone bodes well for QB Jake Locker.

Titans QB Jake Locker impressive in second preseason game

After throwing just two passes against the Packers last week, Titans QB Jake Locker came out of the gate firing against the New Orleans Saints.

Locker confidently marched the first team on a seven-play, 62-yard scoring drive that saw him complete 4 of 5 passes for 30 yards with a pretty touchdown strike to "Making the Leap" candidate Justin Hunter.

After what Ken Whisenhunt did for Philip Rivers in San Diego last season, we're already seeing the coach's fingerprints on Tennessee's young passer.

Fantasy Impact: 

Locker has averaged 15.1 FP in 16 career starts. That extrapolates to 241 points over a 16-game season, or about what Ryan Tannehill scored as the #16 QB in 2013. Health has been his biggest problem, but if he can stay upright, he could grow in Ken Whisenhunt’s offense.

Titans HC Ken Whisenhunt left starting quarterback Jake Locker in longer than planned, but the heavy rain did not cease and there was little usable information produced by his performance.

Locker didn’t handle the ball well in the weather. He needs to do better with that, but anyone would have had a hard time with it.

He only threw two passes. As David Climer of The Tennessean illustrates, one of them was a third-and-3 fade for Justin Hunter that wasn’t close.

The good thing was that Locker was in football action and got hit for the first time since Nov. 10, 2013. He wasn't sacked, but he did run twice.

Fantasy Impact: 

Locker has borderline QB2 value if he can pick up where he left off last year. Unfortunately, the weather conditions in preseason Week 1 didn't help his cause so we'll have to take a look at his progress the next two contests.
