Tennessee Titans QB Jake Locker (shoulder) is ready to go. According to ESPN's Ed Werder, Locker took every first-team rep in practice this week and is set to make his return this Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. Locker missed the past five games with a fractured shoulder suffered back in Week 3.
Jake Locker took all first-team reps in practice, set to start Sunday: Fantasy implications
Jake Locker took all the first-team reps in practice this week and, barring a setback, is ready to make his return to the starting lineup this week. We break down the fantasy implications.

The Titans went 3-4 in Locker's absence, with Matt Hasselbeck under center.
Fantasy Impact: You can go ahead and drop Hasselbeck now, who was serviceable but never had the upside of Locker. He was having a nice start to the season before the injury, and hopes to end the season on a high note.
Locker will have a tough fantasy matchup against Miami's defense this week, and will likely be rusty after missing so much time. I'd hold off on starting him this week; he has a much better fantasy matchup against the Jaguars in Week 12.
