2025 Fantasy Outlook
Mullings mostly played linebacker for three years at Michigan before transitioning to running back full-time in 2023. He was merely the third-string RB during Michigan's national championship season, but Mullings then leapfrogged Donovan Edwards to take over the lead role in 2024 after Blake Corum left for the NFL. Mullings responded with a 185-948-12 rushing line, averaging 5.1 YPC and catching just six passes in 12 games. It was a workmanlike showing rather than an explosive one, but the Titans deemed him worth of a sixth-round pick this spring, giving Mullings the chance to compete for a No. 3 RB job behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears.

RANKS
Signed a four-year, $4.44 million contract with the Titans in May of 2025.
Shifts to IR
Mullings (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2025 sixth-round pick from Michigan played through an ankle injury in the Titans' Week 3 loss to the Colts, logging eight special-teams snaps. However, he began Tennessee's week of practice with consecutive DNPs and has now shifted to IR, suggesting the injury worsened in Week 3. With Mullings out for at least the Titans next four games, the team is down to just two healthy running backs on the active roster: Julius Chestnut and Tony Pollard.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to begin season as RB2
Mullings has a chance to earn a role on offense out of the gate following Tyjae Spears' high-ankle sprain, per Eric Edholm of NFL.com.
ANALYSIS
If Spears isn't ready to play Week 1, Mullings or Julius Chestnut would be the top candidates for change-of-pace work behind starter Tony Pollard. Edholm believes Mullings, whom the Titans selected in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, can bolster his claim for regular-season carries with a strong performance in Tennessee's second preseason game against the Falcons.
