Tennessee Titans
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Key has been a pass-rush specialist throughout his career, and Tennessee relied on him heavily in his first year with the team in 2023. That led to the second-best sack total of his career (6.0) and his fourth consecutive season getting double-digit hits on the quarterback. From an IDP perspective, it's difficult to become invested in Key's skill profile because he is rarely used in coverage and also not typically on the field for traditional running downs. That has served to limit his overall volume throughout his career. Read Past Outlooks

Key (back) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Key was held out of Wednesday's practice due to a back injury, but that doesn't appear to be an issue as he was able to participate in Thursday's session without restrictions. Key has logged 4.0 sacks through nine regular-season games, which is second-most on the Titans behind Harold Landry (5.0).

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2018
Key has served primarily as a situational player through the first five seasons of his career, as he's never surpassed 595 defensive snaps in a camapign. That could change in 2023, as he'll face increased expectations after signing a three-year, $21 million contract with the Titans in the offseason.
The third-round pick out of LSU will slot into a defensive end rotation that also includes Bruce Irvin, Tank Carradine and Shilique Calhoun, but Key could be forced to play an increased role if Pro Bowler Khalil Mack either fails to end his holdout or ultimately gets traded.

Key has a visit scheduled with the Chiefs on Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Key met with the Lions on Monday but didn't wind up signing a deal with Detroit. The free agent defensive end is continuing to meet with suitors. Kansas City would be a logical fit for Key as a contending team that's looking to upgrade its pass rushing ability.
