Tennessee Titans DFS Spin
Titans placed WR Treylon Burks (toe) on injured reserve. The turf toe injury that forced Burks from the Titans’ Week 4 game will now cost him a minimum of four games on the league’s injured reserve. Burks had been surging of late, playing 69% and 65% of the offensive snaps over the previous two weeks. Expect fellow rookie Kyle Philips to see increased usage moving forward as he appears fully healthy following a shoulder injury sustained in Week 2.
Washington Commanders DFS Spin
ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Washington “isn’t looking to make a quarterback switch” from Carson Wentz. Wentz has been at the center of Washington’s three-game losing streak, leading an offense that’s averaged nine points the past two games while taking 11 sacks. Washington plans to stick with Wentz, who ranks 25th in QBR, with the hope he’ll play better as the offensive line gets healthy. With HC Ron Rivera on the hot seat and Wentz owed no guaranteed money beyond this year, it possible Washington will look to see what they have in rookie Sam Howell if Wentz doesn’t get back on track in the coming weeks.

Titans vs. Commanders Prediction:
Neither of these teams have had much ATS success dating back to the end of last season and quite frankly, I don’t trust either side. The under, however, is attractive. The Commanders went under in six of their previous seven home games, in 14 of their previous 17 games in October and in 11 of their last 16 games overall. The under is also 7-3 in the Titans’ last 10 games overall, is 5-1 in their last six games after allowing less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game and is 6-1 in their last seven games coming off a win.
