Rishard Matthews

In a down year for the Tennessee offense, Matthews missed two games, but was essentially the same efficient, productive player he's always been. The fall-off was felt mostly in the scoring department - nine TDs in 2016, only four in 2017 - as Matthews saw seven red-zone targets all year. At 6-0, 217, and with poor timed speed (4.62 40), Matthews posts strong per-target numbers and makes occasional plays downfield thanks to his stout build, good hands and crisp route running. The departure of Mike Mularkey and his low-octane play calling can only help, and new offensive coordinator Matt LaFleur has vowed to simplify the offense and scheme to get both Matthews and second-year man Corey Davis open. It's unclear who will be the team's top dog - we'd imagine the team wants it to be Davis, on whom it used the No. 5 overall pick last year, but Matthews was by far the better player in 2017. Delanie Walker and Dion Lewis are also in the mix, but the Titans' passing-game tree is on the narrow side, which bodes well for Matthews even if Davis does break out. Of greater concern, Matthews was unavailable at the start of training camp while nursing an unspecified injury that dates back to May. The Titans don't seem inclined to provide any details, so it would be wise to approach Matthews with caution for the time being.
