Tennessee Titans rookie tight end Josh Whyle was one of many players who exited the Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts early, but thankfully there is reportedly some good news for the Cincinnati product.
According to beat writer Paul Kuharsky, the knee injury Whyle suffered in the fourth quarter isn’t season-ending. Kuharsky’s report did not reveal the extent of it, though.
Whyle tallied just one catch for 16 yards in the loss to the Colts, but the grab came on the Titans’ touchdown drive in the fourth quarter that forced the game into overtime.
The play was impressive for multiple reasons, as Whyle worked off his block to get open and then picked up yards after the catch following a broken tackle.
It was just the latest example of the flashes the fifth-round pick has shown this year. Hopefully the injury doesn’t cost him any time and the Titans can get him more involved down the stretch in order to prepare him for bigger things in 2024.
