    Xavier Restrepo made the Titans’ initial 53-man roster.

    An undrafted free agent out of Miami, Restrepo joined the Titans last season and had 41 yards on three catches over his two active games late in the regular season. Restrepo led the Titans with eight catches and 97 receiving yards this preseason and seemed to surprise Titans beat writers with his ability to get open during training camp. He’ll start the season near the bottom of the team’s depth chart.

    Restrepo had finally gotten elevated just before Thanksgiving before an ankle injury knocked him out for the season. He finished with three catches for 41 yards in two games. The Titans also signed DE David Ebuka Agoha, DB Keydrain Calligan, DT Timmy Horne, LB Nate Lynn, WR Hal Presley III, NT Isaiah Raikes, LB Cam Riley, RB Blake Watson, G Clay Webb and TE Joel Wilson to reserve/future deals.

    Restrepo’s absence is unsurprising. The rookie wide receiver was carted away from the field after injuring his ankle in the Titans’ Week 13 loss to the Jaguars. Restrepo has caught 3-of-6 targets for 41 yards this season. He does not need to be rostered in re-draft formats.
  • TEN Wide Receiver #87
    Restrepo was called up from the practice squad for his second career game, but was not heavily involved in the offense. He caught his only target for 15 yards late in the blowout loss and was carted off after his ankle was badly injured on the tackle. Restrepo may be looking at a multi-week ankle injury as a result.

    Cam Ward’s college teammate, Restrepo was third on the team in targets. He made one of the plays of the day, where he sensed Ward in trouble and got open over the middle of the field as Ward was fading out of bounds. The quarterback made a cross-body throw the wideout was able to track down and catch. Although the 23-year-old UDFA is unlikely to have much of an NFL future, the Titans would be foolish not to at least test the theory down the stretch of this lost season.

    Quarterback Cam Ward’s former collegiate teammate was elevated to the active roster for the first time since signing to the team’s practice squad before the start of the season. Injuries to Calvin Ridley and Elic Ayomanor made it necessary for the team to bring up pass-catching depth, and Restrepo made the most sense. It remains to be seen how much run he will get in his first professional contest.

    The former Miami (FL) receiver stays with his quarterback, albeit a beat away from actual NFL playing time on the practice squad. The Titans also added WR Mason Kinsey, WR James Proche II, QB Trevor Siemian, OL Andrew Rupcich, DT Isaiah Raikes, DE Ali Gaye, RB Jordan Mims, DB Kendell Brooks, DT Cam Horsley, RB Jermar Jefferson, DB Amani Oruwariye, DE Carlos Watkins, TE Thomas Odukoya and C Corey Levin to their practice squad.
  • FA Wide Receiver #87
    Restrepo is a candidate for the Titans practice squad per Adam Schefter and will almost certainly head there if he doesn’t get a 53-man roster spot elsewhere. Restrepo played 44 offensive snaps in the preseason per PFF and finished with a solid 68.7 offensive grade. He may eventually be fantasy-relevant in Tennessee if the receivers in front of him wash out just based on his connection with former college teammate Cam Ward.

    Winning a role on special teams is Restrepo’s ticket to the active roster. The beefy slot receiver could one day earn an offensive role, but for now, establishing himself as a utility player is key. Restrepo delivered middling results, serving as an occasional punt returner during his five-year college career. Overall, he returned 12 punts for 45 yards while forcing eight missed tackles along the way. His 3.8-yard average fails to inspire, but his 0.7 forced missed tackle average is notable.
  • TEN Wide Receiver
    Restrepo (5’10/209) spent all five years of his collegiate career at Miami. He made a name for himself as a high-volume slot receiver in his final two seasons, hitting 1,092 yards in 2023 and upping the ante with 1,127 yards while catching passes from Cam Ward in 2024. Restrepo is a physical slot receiver who isn’t afraid to corral passes in traffic over the middle of the field. He ran over 90 percent of his career routes from the slot and likely doesn’t have the necessary athleticism to win on the outside in the NFL. Restrepo did not test at the NFL Scouting Combine but ran at Miami’s Pro Day, clocking a time that was, at best, considered in the 4.7s, with some scouts having it much slower. He later took to social media to say his hamstring tightened in warmups. While the ceiling may be limited, Restrepo could develop into a useful WR3 for an NFL team.

    Restrepo (5'10/196) performed well during fall camp, and he’s listed third on the Hurricanes depth chart at slot receiver heading into the team’s opener against UAB Thursday night. The freshman won’t be starting, as Mike Harley earned that honor, but based upon Likens’ comments Restrepo should get some chances to make plays. “He’s just a really hard-work guy, no-nonsense dude, tough as nails, really smart, takes great pride in doing everything right,” Likens said. “He’s very similar in Marshall Few in that way. Extremely happy that we have him. He makes our room better. He pays attention to details. Just a great dude.”

    Mark Andrews caught 4-of-6 targets for 28 yards in the Ravens’ Week 5 win over the Falcons.

    Andrews dropped a would-be touchdown on the team’s opening possession on a ball that went through his hands in the end zone. He would then fumble on the following possession, which Jessie Bates returned for a touchdown to force the Ravens into catch-up mode for the remainder of the game. Luckily for him, late heroics from Tyler Huntley and Derrick Henry had the team escaping with a victory. Andrews has not looked great to start the 2026 season, having not eclipsed 50 yards through five games. He’ll remain a shaky fantasy start in Week 6 when the Ravens host the Browns.

    Zay Flowers caught 8-of-9 targets for 53 yards in the Ravens’ Week 5 win over the Falcons, adding 13 yards on one carry.

    Flowers was largely confined to short area work with Tyler Huntley under center and also saw a 26-yard reception erased from his ledger due to a 29-yard pass interference penalty on the play. It was a weird situation in which the penalty yardage was greater than his reception. Fantasy managers might be forced to continue waiting on the return of Lamar Jackson after it was reported this week that the All Pro starter could be forced to miss another week. Flowers is a locked-in WR2 against the Browns in Week 6 with Huntley under center and an elite WR1 should Jackson return.

    Rashod Bateman caught 5-of-6 targets for 62 yards in the Ravens’ Week 5 win over the Falcons.

    Bateman had a relatively quiet game until notching 38 yards on three receptions on the team’s final possession of regulation, helping to spur an improbable comeback victory in overtime. The team took the ball with just over two minutes remaining down by eight, eventually driving the field and tacking on a two-point conversion to send the game to extra time. Bateman remains a shaky FLEX option for as long as Zay Flowers remains healthy, which doesn’t change ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Browns.

    Derrick Henry rushed 24 times for 102 yards in the Ravens’ Week 5 win over the Falcons, adding 18 yards and a touchdown on one reception.

    Henry also tacked on a successful two-point conversion to further pad his counting stats. The King erupted for 59 yards in the first half before being largely held in check for the final two quarters with the Ravens playing from behind. He would watch from the sidelines for the duration of the team’s final possession in the two-minute drill but came on the field to tie the game with a two-point conversion on a direct snap. The Falcons were no match for Henry in the extra frame, with the bruising back tacking on an additional 32 yards on the ground on the team’s lone overtime possession. Henry continues to turn back the clock while notching his eighth touchdown in five appearances, having scored in every game to start the season. He remains an elite RB1 ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Browns.

    Tyler Huntley completed 24-of-32 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns in the Ravens’ 30-23, Week 5 win over the Falcons, adding 20 yards and a touchdown on six carries.

    Huntley was in command of the offense throughout, showing poise and pocket presence in the face of one of the most stout defensive fronts in the league. The Ravens marched the field on the opening possession but a dropped touchdown from tight end Mark Andrews forced them to settle for a field goal. Their next possession resulted in a Mark Andrews fumble that was returned for a touchdown, forcing the Ravens to play from behind for the remainder of the game. Down by eight with just over two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Huntley took the ball and led the team to a touchdown and successful two-point conversion to force overtime. He would then lead an opening possession touchdown drive in the extra frame, with the team escaping with an unlikely comeback victory on a game-sealing interception. Huntley could be tasked with another start in Week 6 against the Browns after late-week reports indicated that Lamar Jackson could be headed for another absence. Huntley will be a middling QB2, should he start.

    Kyle Pitts caught 5-of-6 targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons’ Week 5 loss to the Ravens.

    Pitts remained largely confined to short area work with his game-long reception going for only 13 yards. A second quarter touchdown from five yards out gave the veteran tight end his first trip to paint through five games and his five receptions doubled that of his previous four appearances. Pitts remains a difficult weekly start for as long as Drake London and Bijan Robinson remain healthy, which doesn’t change ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Bears in Atlanta.

    Jahan Dotson caught 2-of-4 targets for 54 yards in the Falcons’ Week 5 loss to the Ravens.

    Dotson’s 54 yards finished second on the team behind alpha Drake London but his four targets finished behind London, Kyle Pitts, and Bijan Robinson. His status as the starting wide receiver opposite London likely means little in the wake of modest volume games that continue to stack up. He can safely be left on, or returned to, the waiver wire.

    Drake London caught 7-of-11 targets for 118 yards in the Falcons’ Week 5 loss to the Ravens.

    London started slow along with the rest of an Atlanta offense that gained just 37 total yards on their first three possessions before a 78-yard scoring drive to end the half. He would add six receptions after the break to push his season average to 127 yards per game in games started by Michael Penix. Penix departed late in the fourth quarter with a ribs injury, suddenly making London’s fantasy managers skittish after the veteran receiver managed a meager 80 total yards in two games without Penix to begin the season. Fantasy managers will want to monitor Atlanta’s starting quarterback’s status in the coming days ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Bears, where London will be a WR1 with Penix or an upside WR3 in his absence.

    Bijan Robinson rushed 17 times for 86 yards in the Falcons’ Week 5 loss to the Ravens, adding 32 yards on four receptions.

    Robinson suffered through poor offensive efficiency in the first half, finally breaking loose for a 38-yard carry on the team’s first possession of the third quarter. Although the receiving production and yardage total were enough to salvage a usable fantasy week, it was only the second time in five games in which Robinson failed to find the end zone. Robinson remains an elite fantasy RB1 ahead of a Week 6 showdown against the Bears in Atlanta.

    Tua Tagovailoa completed 2-of-3 passes for 34 yards and an interception in the Falcons’ 30-23, Week 5 loss to the Ravens.

    Tagovailoa came on in relief of the injured Michael Penix late in the fourth quarter and would be charged with leading the Falcons to a potential game-tying drive in overtime after the Ravens took the ball and scored a touchdown to start the extra period. He completed one pass at the end of the fourth quarter, one in overtime, and then threw a game-ending interception to send the Falcons to a 2-3 record ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Bears. Fantasy managers of Penix will want to track his status closely in the coming days.
