2023 Fantasy Outlook
Chestnut joined the Titans as an undrafted rookie following the conclusion of the 2022 NFL Draft. He made the team out of training camp - an impressive feat - but bounced between the active roster and practice squad for much of the season. Chestnut did manage to emerge across the final six weeks of the campaign as a kick returner and special teams contributor. He'll be on the periphery of the roster once again in 2023 after the team drafted Tyjae Spears in the third round April's draft. Read Past Outlooks

Hamstring
March 13, 2024
Chestnut (hamstring) is re-signing with the Titans on a one-year contract, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Chestnut appeared in six games with Tennessee as a rookie in 2022 but was limited to three appearances in 2023 before going on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury. Once healthy, he'll compete for a depth role in a backfield now headlined by free-agent signing Tony Pollard rather than Derrick Henry.
