Tate Ruled Out as Titans Prepare for Jaguars

Published November 13, 2026. The Tennessee Titans have ruled rookie wide receiver Carnell Tate out of their Week 10 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Tate has been sidelined by a shoulder injury and did not practice after Tennessee’s Week 9 bye. He also missed the team’s Week 8 game against Cincinnati.

With Tate unavailable, Wan’Dale Robinson and Chimere Dike are expected to take on larger roles. Against the Bengals, Robinson played 72 snaps and ran 47 routes, both team highs, while working primarily from the slot. He caught enough passes to finish as fantasy football’s No. 15 receiver that week, with 15.7 points and seven targets.

Dike had 63 snaps and 40 routes in that game, finishing with five catches for 71 yards and a touchdown. He filled Tate’s role as Tennessee’s outside Z receiver, and is expected to do so again against Jacksonville. The Jaguars have allowed more fantasy production to outside receivers than to slot receivers, making Dike the more appealing of the two options for fantasy managers.

Ayomanor shared the outside X receiver position with veteran Calvin Ridley when Tate was out in Week 8. He played 50 snaps and ran 30 routes, but produced three catches for 34 yards on five targets. The outlook for Ayomanor and Ridley is less encouraging, with both viewed as options mainly for managers in deeper leagues who lack alternatives.
