Kristian Fulton Fantasy

Tennessee Titans cornerback Kristian Fulton (shoulder) underwent surgery on his right shoulder recently, according to his Instagram. Fulton played in only six games in his rookie season in 20202 and managed to play in 13 games in 2021 while emerging as one of the best young cornerbacks in the league. The 23-year-old was placed on Injured Reserve after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 5, which caused him to miss four games. In 19 games (15 starts) in his first two NFL seasons, Fulton has 56 tackles (44 solo), three interceptions and 15 passes defensed. It's unclear exactly what was wrong with his shoulder, but he'll have plenty of time to heal up before training camp this summer.

The Tennessee Titans activated rookie cornerback Kristian Fulton from Injured Reserve on Tuesday. In corresponding moves, the team placed linebacker Tuzar Skipper on the practice-squad IR and activated defensive lineman Teair Tart from the suspended list. Fulton wrapped up his third week of practice last week and is now eligible to play in Week 15 against the Lions. The second-round selection has played in five games for the Titans in 2020 and has 15 tackles, one sack and an interception. Fulton himself isn't on the IDP radar at all, but the Titans Defense should be considered a top-10 fantasy unit in their matchup with Detroit, especially if quarterback Matthew Stafford (rib) is unable to play after suffering a painful rib injury in the Week 14 loss to the Packers.

The Tennessee Titans used pick No. 61 to select LSU cornerback Kristian Fulton in the 2020 NFL draft. The Titans got good value here as Fulton was considered a first-round talent by many draft pundits. He slipped to the second round due to some off-field issues back in 2017 when he failed a drug test and was suspended for the season. While he only recorded one interception last season, Fulton was credited with 14 pass breakups. Fulton is a good athlete with good instincts at the position, although he did struggle with his confidence at times during his college career.
