  Titans | Dontrell Hilliard lands on IR    Sat Dec 17, 01:23 PM

Tennessee Titans RB Dontrell Hilliard (neck) and WR C.J. Board were placed on injured reserve on Saturday, Dec. 17. Also, RB Julius Chestnut, DB Davontae Harris and OL Jordan Roos were promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster, DB Lonnie Johnson was activated from injured reserve, and WR Mason Kinsey and LB Andre Smith were elevated from the practice squad for Week 15.

Footballguys view: Without Hilliard, the Titans turn to guys like Julius Chestnut and Hassan Haskins behind starter Derrick Henry. So long as Henry is healthy, Chestnut and Haskins won't do much.

  Titans | Dontrell Hilliard carted off    Sun Dec 11, 02:22 PM

Tennessee Titans RB Dontrell Hilliard (neck) was carted off the field during the Week 14 game because of a neck injury and is considered questionable to return.

Footballguys view: Hilliard was the injury upside backup to Derrick Henry, but now there's no clear pickup if Henry goes down. UDFA Julius Chestnut is the next man up, but the team could look for a veteran free agent to sign next week.

  Titans | Dontrell Hilliard targeted when it counts    Fri Nov 18, 09:26 PM

Tennessee Titans RB Dontrell Hilliard's four touchdown receptions are tied with Los Angeles Chargers RB Austin Ekeler for the most among running backs this season.

Footballguys view: The Titans have Derrick Henry as the centerpiece of their offense. He's their primary ball-carrier, but we've seen Hilliard worked in as a receiving back this season. In certain matchups, Hilliard has some 'what the heck' flex appeal for Fantasy GMs out there. He's obviously a high-priority reserve if you have Henry and the bench space to carry Hilliard as the fantasy playoffs draw near.

  Titans | Friday's practice report for Tennessee    Fri Sep 16, 03:46 PM

Tennessee Titans CB Kristian Fulton (hamstring), RB Dontrell Hilliard (hamstring), OT Jamarco Jones (elbow) and OG Nate Davis (knee) did not participate in practice Friday, Sept. 16. WR Kyle Philips (shoulder), LB Olasunkanmi Adeniyi (neck) and OT Dillon Radunz (neck) were limited. C Ben Jones (non-injury), OT Taylor Lewan (knee) and CB Lonnie Johnson (groin) practiced in full.

Footballguys view: Hilliard appears to be on track to sit for Monday night's game after a strong Week 1. Rookies Hassan Haskins and Julius Chestnut would back up Derrick Henry if Hilliard is out, but it's not clear who would get passing down snaps of the three backs. It could be good for Henry's outlook if Hilliard is out in a game that could see the Titans playing from behind against the Bills. Philips is being back in a limited fashion is good news. Consider him a PPR WR3/Flex if he goes Monday night. We'll be watching the rookie's status in practice tomorrow.

  Titans | Dontrell Hilliard is Derrick Henry's Primary Backup?    Tue Aug 23, 11:53 AM

Tennessee Titans RB Dontrell Hilliard is expected to 'get the bulk of the work if Derrick Henry were to miss any time,' The Athletic's Joe Rexrode wrote on Tuesday, Aug. 23.

Footballguys view: Hilliard has regularly made plays in Titans camp. If Henry were to miss time, Hilliard could get a bulk of the work. Rookie RB Hassan Haskins would get into the mix as well. If you're drafting Henry early (and have deep bench space) then grab Hilliard just in case late in your draft.

  Titans | Dontrell Hilliard securing role?    Thu Aug 18, 10:12 PM

Tennessee Titans RB Dontrell Hilliard has 'regularly made plays' during training camp, often as a receiver out of the backfield, according to John Glennon of SI.com.

Footballguys view: Hilliard is vying with fourth round pick Hassan Haskins, UDFA Julius Chestnut, and special teams contributor Trenton Cannon to back up Derrick Henry. Last year, Hilliard was fantasy relevant after Henry went down while he shared the backup job with D'Onta Foreman.

  Titans | Jordan Wilkins on outside looking in    Mon Jul 11, 08:39 AM

Tennessee Titans RB Jordan Wilkins is a long shot to make the team in training camp behind RBs Dontrell Hilliard, Hassan Haskins and Trenton Cannon.

Footballguys view: Wilkins has been an efficient runner when he has gotten opportunities with the Colts, but he has had trouble staying healthy. Hilliard has passing down chops, Cannon has special teams value, and the Titans invested a fourth round pick in Haskins, so at least you know if Wilkins makes the team, the Titans see something in him. If you think Derrick Henry is going to break down again this year, following this depth chart battle in camp takes on extra importance.

  Titans | Dontrell Hilliard impressing    Thu Jun 16, 10:53 AM

Tennessee Titans RB Dontrell Hilliard caught touchdowns on back-to-back throws from QB Ryan Tannehill at the end of the final 7-on-7 period. He has shown good quickness and speed on his carries.

Footballguys view: Rookie Hasaan Haskins is seen as the primary backup to Derrick Henry, but Hilliard is there to compete for the spot as well. If Henry needed to miss time, the Titans would likely use Haskins on early downs and use Hilliard in space and as a receiving back on passing downs.

  Titans | Week 18 game recap for Titans    Sun Jan 9, 05:41 PM

Tennessee Titans QB Ryan Tannehill went 23-for-32 for 287 yards and four touchdowns against the Houston Texans in Week 18. RB D'Onta Foreman rushed for 69 yards on 21 carries and caught one pass for 15 yards. RB Dontrell Hilliard rushed for 57 yards on nine carries. WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught four passes for 78 yards and one touchdown on five targets. WR A.J. Brown caught four passes for 68 yards and one touchdown on six targets. WR Julio Jones caught five passes for 58 yards and one touchdown on nine targets, while TE Anthony Firkser caught four passes for 56 yards and one touchdown on four targets.

Footballguys view: Tannehill had yet another gutsy performance after the Texans narrowed a 21-point lead to three in the second half. Tannehill responded and looks to be in top form with a bye as the Titans captured the #1 seed. Jones caught his first touchdown in over a year as he is ready to finally contribute. Derrick Henry should be ready for the divisional round when the Titans host the lowest remaining seed from the wild card winners.

  Titans | Dontrell Hilliard promoted    Tue Nov 23, 01:52 PM

Tennessee Titans RB Dontrell Hilliard was signed off the practice squad Tuesday, Nov. 23.

Footballguys view: Hilliard rushed seven times for 35 yards in Tennessee's Week 11 loss to Houston, adding eight catches for 47 yards on 10 targets. He's done enough to earn more of a role in the Titans backfield. They've been searching for answers since losing Derrick Henry, and while Hilliard isn't the total answer - he could be part of the solution. If you think the Titans will use the change-of-pace back more, then pick him up and play him as a 'what the heck' flex option.

Footballguys view: The Titans need RB help with Darrynton Evans out for the year on IR with an aggravated knee injury. Derrick Henry is the lead back and he'll run all over opponents on the schedule. When he needs a breather, the Titans can go to Jeremy McNichols. Hilliard is trying to find a spot after those two in the RB room.
