Justin Hunter’s minor knee injury shouldn’t impact fantasy value
Justin Hunter was limited in practice on Wednesday. We break down the fantasy implications.

Hunter was targeted eight times in the Titans' Week 1 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, catching three receptions for 63 yards. His eight targets matched a career high and he was on the field for 52 of 82 offensive plays. That percentage may seem low, but the Titans were up big and focused on the running the ball more in the second half.
It’s clear he’s going to be a big part of the aerial attack for the Titans this season. His Week 2 outlook bodes very well against the porous Dallas Cowboys defense. Hunter has put up two 100-yard games in his brief career and is a good bet to have his third on Sunday.
Fantasy impact: There is no need to worry about his knee injury. Hunter has a chance to put up massive numbers vs. the Cowboys and is a strong WR3 with major upside. He should not be on any waiver wires.
