This is how WRs have played against the Titans in the 2026 season.
WR1 = the highest-scoring WR against Titans in each game, not a fixed depth-chart spot.

How Tee Higgins should do vs the TitansSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Titans, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Tee Higgins has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Titans opponents to line them up with: the best WR they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Tee Higgins will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Titans avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Tee Higgins's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Tee Higgins usually produces.
Projected is Tee Higgins's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Titans were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.

| Difference | +0.1 | +1.0 | -19.1 | -0.1 | -1.4 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Higgins averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Prediction & chance to scoreTee Higgins vs the Titans
Prediction for Tee Higgins
Nobody knows which slot Tee Higgins will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Titans.
I predict about 17.9 points for Tee Higgins if playing as a WR1. Tee Higgins has averaged 17.0 over 6 games, and the Titans have given up 18.5 to WR1s (+7% vs the league average of 17.3).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Tee Higgins scored: Wk 1 8.9, Wk 2 14.5, Wk 3 21.0, Wk 4 26.7, Wk 5 4.2, Wk 7 26.8. Average 17.0; weighted toward recent games it is 17.1.
2. The defense. Over 7 games, the Titans allowed 18.5 points to their opponent's WR1. The league average for that slot is 17.3, so that is +7%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 7 defensive games, only 70% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +5% adjustment (x1.05).
4. Result. 17.1 x 1.05 = 17.9. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.
It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.
Chance to score
Type a point total to see how likely Tee Higgins is to reach it as a WR1.
Why this percentage?
The projection (17.9) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 9.4 points, leaning on Tee Higgins's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical WR swings before that).
Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 18.
With only 6 games of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.
