Matthews (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews was a mid-week addition to injury report last Thursday and didn't end up playing in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts. Head coach Mike Mularkey said Monday that he considers the wideout to be day-to-day, suggesting there's at least some shot Matthews makes it back to practice by the end of the week. Eric Decker and Harry Douglas absorbed most of Matthews' usual snaps in Sunday's victory, with seven Titans landing between two and five targets (and none getting more than five). Matthews will have a favorable matchup against the Texans if he's able to make it back this week.

Matthews (hamstring) is considered day-to-day, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews was added to last week's injury report on Thursday and ultimately held out of Sunday's 20-16 win over the Colts. His availability did at least come down to a game-time decision, suggesting he has a shot to avoid any further absences as the Titans prepare for Week 13 against the Texans. Eric Decker and Harry Douglas absorbed Matthews' usual snaps in Sunday's win, while Corey Davis and Taywan Taylor actually saw minor dips in snap share from the previous couple weeks.

Matthews (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game at Indianapolis, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews' practice reps diminished as the week progressed, culminating in a DNP at Friday's session. Corey Davis, Eric Decker and Taywan Taylor will move into more prominent roles as a result.

Head coach Mike Mularky considers Matthews (hamstring) a "game-time decision" Sunday at Indianapolis.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews' practice reps diminished as the week progressed, culminating in a DNP at Friday's session. Because the hamstring designation appeared suddenly Thursday, his status will be the sole one concerning the Titans as they prepare for Sunday's divisional matchup. An absence would thrust wide receivers Corey Davis, Eric Decker and Taywan Taylor into more prominent roles.

Matthews (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts after not practicing Friday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rather than see his outlook brighten Friday after being added to the Titans' injury report Thursday following a limited practice session, Matthews' status for Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff is now very uncertain. If he is out for the contest, or limited, Corey Davis, Taywan Taylor and Eric Decker would head the Titans' wideout corps this weekend. It's worth noting that Matthews is the only player listed on the team's Week 12 injury report.

Matthews (hamstring) was limited at Thursday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews' status is thus worth tracking as Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff against the Colts approaches. What he's able to do at Friday's practice will be telling with regard to the wideout's Week 12 status. Matthews hauled in five of six targets for 113 yards and a TD in the Titans' Week 11 loss to the Steelers.

Matthews hauled in five of six targets for 113 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 40-17 loss to the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews got the Titans jump-started in the second half by catching a perfectly thrown deep post and deftly evading two defenders on his way to paydirt. It was the 28-year-old's longest touchdown of the campaign, while his receiving yardage total was a season high. It was also his second score in the last three games, but he still has a ways to go before approximating the nine end-zone trips he tallied last season. Matthews will look to continue building towards that goal in Week 12 against the vulnerable Colts secondary.

Matthews caught five of seven targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews ranked third in targets behind Corey Davis (10) and Rishard Matthews (nine). The veteran wide receiver has been consistently mediocre this season, finishing between three and six catches and between 34 and 87 yards in every game this season.

Matthews caught four of seven targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over Baltimore.
EDGE Analysis
Matthews was wide open in the end zone from 16 yards out late in the first quarter. The touchdown was only his second of the season, as Matthews has disappointed in that regard after scoring nine times in his last 12 games last year. Rookie wide receiver Corey Davis (hamstring) returned for the first time since Week 2, but Matthews' workload should remain steady regardless of who suits up on the outside opposite him.

Matthews caught three of six passes for 40 yards in Sunday's 12-9 overtime win over Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Probably Tennessee's most consistent outside threat, Matthews has been solid, but unspectacular for much of this season. He's topped 65 yards receiving and four catches thrice in seven games. He has scored just once, however. The smash-mouth style of play Tennessee leans on isn't particularly conducive to quality receiver play to begin with. The presence of tight end Delanie Walker and two up-and-coming rookies in Corey Davis and Taywan Taylor probably limit Matthews' ceiling even further.
