Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kendall Wright has had a nightmare month, and things just keep getting worse for him. He’s missed nearly all of training camp and the preseason with a hamstring injury, and on Monday head coach Mike Mularkey said that Wright aggravated the injury. He’s already been ruled out of Thursday’s preseason finale.
Kendall Wright re-injures hamstring, fantasy value is rapidly vanishing
Kendall Wright just can’t get back on the practice field right now. We look at the fantasy implications.

A talented receiver who’s had problems staying on the field over his four-year career, Wright’s injury woes continued in 2015. He set career lows in games played (10), catches (36) and yards (408), quickly falling off the fantasy radar in the process.
Fantasy impact: As if the injury wasn’t bad enough, Wright now has steep competition on the depth chart. Rishard Matthews and rookie Tajae Sharpe seem locked in as the starters, while Andre Johnson and Harry Douglas both have an excellent shot at making the 53-man roster.
Wright might not be on the roster bubble yet, but he’s clearly become an afterthought in Mularkey’s offense. He’s no longer worth spending a draft pick on in 12- or 14-team fantasy leagues.
