ANALYSIS

Could return in Week 9
Oliver (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Following a week of limited practice sessions, Oliver has a chance to return in Week 9.

ANALYSIS
Oliver has missed the Titans' last six games due to a lingering knee injury, but a full practice over the next two days would put him in line to return against the Chargers on Sunday. Oliver would likely serve in a return role on special teams if he's cleared to play Week 9, though he could also see some snaps on offense if Calvin Ridley (hamstring) is noted cleared to play.

Won't play Sunday
Oliver (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Colts, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Youngstown State product is now in line to miss his sixth consecutive game due to a knee injury. Oliver has appeared in two games for Tennessee this season, contributing primarily on special teams (47 snaps on special teams and 11 on offense). While he's sidelined again in Week 8, Chimere Dike is expected to serve as the Titans' primary kick returner.
Oct 22, 2025
DNP to open week
Oliver (knee) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Oliver has missed the Titans' last five games due to a knee injury.

Limited in Wednesday's practice
Oliver (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Oliver has been sidelined for the Titans' last four games due to a knee injury he sustained against the Rams in Week 2. He would have a better chance of being cleared to play against the Patriots on Sunday if he were to log a full practice over the next two days. Julius Chestnut and Chimere Dike will continue to serve as the Titans' top return options on kickoffs and punts if Oliver is not given the green light to suit up against New England.

Returns to practice
Oliver (knee) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official sitereports.
ANALYSIS
Oliver has missed three straight games with the knee injury and has not practiced in any capacity during his absence. His limited session Wednesday is thus a positive sign, though Oliver's status for a Week 6 matchup against Las Vegas is still unclear.

Oliver (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS

Not playing Week 3
Oliver (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Oliver suffered a knee injury during the Titans' Week 2 loss to the Rams. The injury was severe enough for him to miss practice all of last week, and he'll work on being available for Tennessee's AFC South clash against Houston in Week 4. Julius Chestnut will likely join rookie fourth-rounder Chimere Dike on special teams as a kickoff returner in Oliver's absence.
Sep 19, 2025
Questionable for Week 3
Oliver (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.
ANALYSIS
Oliver suffered a knee injury in Week 2 and has not practiced in any capacity throughout the week. While he's officially listed as questionable, his practice participation doesn't bode well for him suiting up.
Sep 17, 2025
DNP on Wednesday
Oliver (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The second-year wideout has played a total of 11 offensive snaps through two games, recording one catch for eight yards on one target. He's a deep reserve in Tennessee's wideout room.
Sep 14, 2025
Nursing knee injury
Oliver is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Rams due to a knee injury, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear when Oliver suffered the injury, but he doesn't seem likely to return given that Sunday's game is in its final minutes. Tyler Lockett could join Chimere Dike on a kickoff return if Oliver is not able to return.
Jan 13, 2025
Active for 10 games
Oliver recorded six receptions on nine targets for 95 yards across 10 games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Oliver's stat line isn't impressive in traditional terms, though he rose significantly through the roster. He joined the Titans as an undrafted free agent following the 2024 Draft, and he earned a spot on the practice squad to begin the campaign. He then joined the active roster in Week 9 and served a depth role among the receiver corps while also chipping in on special teams. Tennessee will presumably aim to improve their pass catchers this offseason, potentially putting Oliver's roster spot in jeopardy.
Dec 29, 2024
Good to go for Week 17
Oliver (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Oliver dealt with a knee injury late this week but will nonetheless be able to play Sunday. The rookie wideout has had a limited role on offense this season, and he logged just two offensive snaps last week in a loss to Indianapolis. Oliver will likely have a similarly minor role in Tennessee's passing game against the Jaguars with four healthy wideouts ahead of him in the pecking order.
Dec 27, 2024
Questionable for Sunday
Oliver (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Oliver appears to be trending in the wrong direction ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup, as he downgraded from a limited session Thursday to a DNP on Friday. However, if the Youngstown State product is able to play through his knee injury in Week 17, he'll likely serve as a depth piece in Tennessee's wide receiver room, playing behind Calvin Ridley, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Mason Kinsey and potentially Tyler Boyd (foot, questionable).
Nov 11, 2024
First catches of career
Oliver recorded two receptions on two targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Oliver was signed to the Titans' active roster ahead of Week 9, and he's been active for two games since. He's played a combined eight offensive snaps, though he did manage the first receptions of his career late in Tennessee's loss against the Chargers.
Nov 2, 2024
Added to Titans' active roster
The Titans signed Oliver from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Oliver was signed by Tennessee in May as an undrafted free agent, and although he didn't make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, he opted to stick around on the practice squad. Oliver could see some snaps against the Patriots on Sunday if Tyler Boyd (shoulder) is unable to play.
Aug 29, 2024
Sticking with Tennessee
Oliver signed with the Titans' practice squad Thursday, Serena Burks of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Oliver shined during camp and preseason, making eight catches on 11 targets for 90 yards and two touchdowns. Despite the strong showing, the Youngstown State product was unable to receive a spot on the team's 53-man roster. However, he was able to clear waivers and despite garnering interest from other teams, ultimately decided to stay with the Titans and further develop on their practice squad.
Aug 27, 2024
Let go by Tennessee
The Titans waived Oliver on Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Oliver signed with the Titans in May as an undrafted free agent. The Youngstown State product entered training camp competing for a depth receiving role, and across three preseason games he accumulated eight catches on 11 targets for 90 yards and two touchdowns, both of which came in the preseason finale against the Saints on Sunday. Despite the strong finish, it wasn't enough for Oliver to crack the Titans' 53-man roster, though he could be invited back to join Tennessee's practice squad.
