Is Ryan Tannehill playing today vs. the Bengals in Week 12?

Tennessee Titans v Green Bay Packers
Ryan Tannehill of the Tennessee Titans celebrates after defeating the Green Bay Packers

Since making his injury-related comeback about two weeks ago, Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been on a terrific ride. On Thursday, November 17, the seasoned player and the Titans defeated the Green Bay Packers 27-17 by throwing for a season-high 333 yards and two touchdowns. Will he suit up for the Cincinnati Bengals game today?

Tannehill is anticipated to play tonight against the Cincinnati Bengals. The team has won four of their previous five games, including one with a 27-17 triumph over Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers in Week 11. They have been impressive thus far this season.

The player has displayed glimpses of his former self in eight matches this campaign (he was sidelined for two games due to an ankle problem) and has thrown four interceptions, similar to the six and seven he tossed in each of the seasons of 2019 and 2020.

The Titans are in the perfect position to face the Cincinnati Bengals again since Ryan Tannehill is fresh from his finest throwing performance of the year.

The Bengals' most recent visit occurred in the postseason in January, and everyone knows what transpired. In that game, Tannehill threw three interceptions, and the defeat was so agonizing that he admitted seeking therapy to cope.

Earlier in the week, Tannehill stated what transpired during the playoffs last season will not have any impact on what may occur this week. But there's no disputing the much curiosity that surrounds his performance in this one.

He is playing after his best offensive performance so far, a 333-yard, two-touchdown showing against the Packers, which is a huge plus coming into this game. Since Week 2 of the last campaign, when he passed for 347 yards against the Seattle Seahawks, Week 11 was his highest number of passing yards in a game.

Tannehill has contributed enough to the Titans' 6-2 record in games this season that he has started.

Ryan Tannehill's fantasy outlook for Week 12

Ryan Tannehill could have a significant impact against the Bengals' pass defense, but it's unlikely that he will have another performance with an 81.5 completion rate. He should be fine for over 200 yards and one touchdown; if he can add another or score on a goal-line run, that would be a decent quarterback start.
