McNichols recorded seven carries for 24 yards in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Rams. He added three receptions for 11 yards.
McNichols finished second on the team in carries, with Adrian Peterson commanding 10 rushing attempts and D'Onta Foreman five. McNichols ripped off a 14-yard gain but was largely held on check on the ground. Similarly, he had one reception that went for nine yards but otherwise was limited as a receiver. Though he did see an increased role on the ground as projected in the absence of Derrick Henry (foot), the Titans backfield appears to have devolved into a three-way timeshare for touches.
