Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kendall Wright did not participate in the team’s practice on Wednesday, according to The Tennessean’s Jason Wolf. He is still waiting to make his first appearance on a practice field this summer as he continues to heal from a hamstring injury.

Titans head coach Mike Mularkey had previously hoped that Wright would be able to play in the team’s third preseason game on Saturday, but that now seems highly unlikely.
Fantasy impact: Injuries seem to linger for Tennessee’s receiver as he has missed eight games in the past two years. Fantasy owners in 2016 seem to be paying attention, as he has ended up undrafted in most leagues.
For a player like Wright who only had one game last season with over 100 yards receiving, it is is not too hard to understand why he is a fantasy risk for 2016. On the plus side, he should be able to get more targets this season after the Titans recently traded away Dorial Green-Beckham.
But he needs to actually get on the field first.
