Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kendall Wright (ribs) missed practice on Wednesday and is expected to be out for the Titans Week 16 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Wright has not missed a game this season, and the first round pick has 62 catches for 586 yards and four touchdowns.
Kendall Wright likely out for Week 16, fantasy value of Jake Locker slightly affected
Without the Titans’ 2012 first round pick, can Locker deliver a Christmas miracle? We break down the fantasy implications.

The Titans are stopping short of placing Wright on IR even though there are only two games left in the season and Tennessee is out of playoff contention. This leaves open the opportunity for the rookie to get in one more game. Wright's season-high production was 78 yards against the Texans in Week 13.
Fantasy Take: If you made it this far you likely don't have Wright or Jake Locker, but in case you did in some bizarro league, Locker would be better off with Wright than without him.
