Nick Westbrook-Ikhine — 2026 Fantasy Outlook
Analysis by Shawn Childs, from his 2026 guide — his words, unedited.
Westbrook-Ikhine's two seasons as the Tennessee Titans' WR2 were underwhelming on the whole. He caught 25 of 50 targets for 397 yards and three touchdowns in 2022, with one standout game (five catches, 119 yards, and two scores), followed by a nearly identical 2023 (28 catches for 370 yards and three touchdowns on 45 targets).
2024 was his most productive yet, setting career highs in targets (60), receiving yards (497), and touchdowns (9) on 32 catches. He was particularly hot at midseason, scoring in seven of eight games during one stretch. His limitations were hard to ignore; a 53.3% catch rate and three catches or fewer in 11 of his final 13 games made him a boom-or-bust option at best.
His 6'2", 210-pound frame makes him a natural red zone target, which is where most of his value lives. Six of his nine touchdowns came inside the 20-yard line, underlining his profile as a scoring-dependent fantasy asset rather than a reliable volume contributor.
With Miami in 2025, the Dolphins gave Westbrook-Ikhine 39.3% of their snaps, resulting in a lost season (11 catches for 89 yards on 20 targets).
