Tennessee Titans interim coach Mike Mularkey expects wide receiver Kendall Wright to be available for Week 12, according to Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com.
Kendall Wright expected to be active Week 12, fantasy value still boom or bust
The Titans are expected to get Kendall Wright back into action on Sunday after a three-week absence. We break down the fantasy implications.

Wright has missed three straight games due to a knee injury, but is slated to take the field once again to aid an uninspiring receiving corps for quarterback Marcus Mariota. Wright will presumably man his usual position in the slot and soak up the bulk of the targets and snaps among the Titans wide receivers.
Fantasy impact: The practice reports will shed more light on Mularkey’s expectations, and fantasy owners would be wise to keep those reports close by in preparation for Week 12. Despite the positive outlook, Wright remains on pace for career lows in catches and yardage despite having arguably the best quarterback over the course of his four-year career.
Even with a plus matchup at hand against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday, Wright is at best a WR3 in PPR leagues and a desperate flex option in standard formats.
