Titans’ Elic Ayomanor Aiming to Boost Fantasy Outlook in Week 5

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans face the Arizona Cardinals Sunday at 4:05 p.m. ET on CBS, marking a crucial moment in Week 5 of the NFL season. The Titans are one of three teams still seeking their first victory as they head into the game on the heels of a disappointing 26-0 loss to the Texans.

Rookie wide receiver Elic Ayomanor stands out as a potentially valuable player for fantasy football enthusiasts. Despite the Titans’ offensive struggles, Ayomanor caught two of six targets for 44 yards last week, leading all Titans pass-catchers in a performance that highlighted the team’s need for offensive production.

With just 12 receptions over four games, Ayomanor ranks as a top-40 fantasy wideout in both standard and PPR leagues, making him a viable Flex option for many teams. His recent performance saw him outpace veteran receiver Calvin Ridley, which may indicate a shift towards Ayomanor becoming the Titans’ primary receiving threat.

The Titans are grappling with a lackluster offensive display this season, a situation that presents an opportunity for experimentation, particularly with Ayomanor. The team is looking toward the future, especially with talks of a potential top overall draft pick already looming over Nashville.

The Arizona Cardinals’ pass defense has been average at best, which may provide Ayomanor with the chance to increase his targets and yardage in this matchup. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his utilization in the game, as this could solidify his position as a valuable asset.

As the Titans continue to explore their offensive dynamics, Ayomanor could very well prove to be a key player in turning their season around, at least on the fantasy front.
