2023 Fantasy Outlook
Okonkwo is coming off a strong finish to his rookie season, and the 2022 fourth-round pick out of Maryland should get plenty of opportunities this year on a Titans team that lacks weapons in the passing game. After recording only eight catches over his first 10 games, Okonkwo became much more involved in the second half of his rookie campaign, catching at least three passes in six of the last seven games for a total of 24 catches for 278 yards and two touchdowns on 31 targets over that span. Chig played more than half of Tennessee's offensive snaps only twice as a rookie while working behind Austin Hooper, but with Hooper having left for Vegas in free agency, Okonkwo's poised for a significant bump in playing time in his sophomore season, especially if he can improve his blocking. Tennessee's offense is built around the running game, but wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks are the only players likely to command more targets than the 6-foot-2, 244-pound Okonkwo when the Titans turn to the air.

Modest showing in Week 18
Okonkwo recorded two receptions (on three targets) for 36 yards in Sunday's 28-20 win over the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
The Titans had a positive game script for much of the contest, which limited passing volume. As a result, Okonkwo had a quiet close to the season. Despite a very inconsistent passing attack in Tennessee, he did manage to take a moderate step forward in his sophomore campaign by tallying 54 receptions for 528 yards and a touchdown. Okonkwo should have a significant role in the offense again in 2024, though his potential volume will ultimately be determined by whether DeAndre Hopkins is back with the team and any subsequent additions the Titans make to their pass-catching corps.

Starting to carve out role
Okonkwo, a rookie fourth-round pick, appears to be progressively carving out a larger role in the Titans' passing attack.
ANALYSIS
Okonkwo is an athletic pass-catching threat that has drawn comparisons to the likes of Vernon Davis and former Titan Delanie Walker for his ability to get downfield consistently. The Maryland product has already recorded five receptions of at least 20 yards, including three over 40, on just 15 total catches. Okonkwo is coming off having corralled a career-high four receptions for 68 yards while running a season-high 20 routes in the Week 13 loss to the Eagles.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Okonkwo was selected by the Titans in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Maryland. A three-star recruit, Okonkwo failed to make much of an impact until his senior year, when he delivered 52 receptions for 447 yards and five touchdowns. He isn't likely to produce much in terms of fantasy value in his rookie year but could enter a rotation at the tight end position alongside Austin Hooper and Geoff Swaim.
