|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| First | 1–9 | 33 | 21 | 194 | 1 |
| Second | 10–18 | 41 | 27 | 229 | 3 |
Dike played all 17 games and got more from his offense as the year went on — 41 targets and 3 TDs in the final 9 weeks vs. 33 targets and 1 TD in the first 9. For a rebuilding Titans offense, that trajectory matters more than the raw season line.
His 64.9% catch rate on 74 targets is strong for a rookie asked to run real routes, not just screens.
4 receiving TDs in his rookie year — 3 of them coming in a 5-week closing stretch.

Dike scored in 4 games during his rookie year, with his last 3 TDs arriving in Weeks 12, 14, and 16 — a scoring burst inside the final 5 weeks of the regular season.
The Week 7 vs. New England line was the standout: 4 catches on 4 targets, 70 yards and a score — a perfect efficiency game early in the year that previewed what the second half would deliver.
Week 8 at Indy: 8 targets, 7 catches, 93 yards — his only 90+ yard game, but the efficiency made it a statement.

The Week 8 game at Indianapolis was Dike's rookie coming-out: 8 targets, 7 catches, 93 yards on a 21.6% share — the cleanest efficiency line of his year, and 87.5% catch rate against a real secondary.
He finished with 5 games of 40+ receiving yards across 17 appearances — a WR2/3 distribution on a passing offense that didn't have a true WR1 for stretches of the year.
Week 14 vs. Cleveland: 78 air yards, 44.8% air-yards share — the most downfield usage of any game all season.

| 14 | CLE | 8 | 5 | 24 | 78 | 44.8% |

| 7 | NE | 4 | 4 | 70 | 57 | 25.2% |
| 5 | ARI | 5 | 2 | 17 | 95 | 22.6% |
In Week 14, 44.8% of Tennessee's total air yards were thrown in Dike's direction — a number that typically belongs to a team's clear WR1. He scored, but Cleveland kept the yardage modest.
The bigger story is the Weeks 12–16 cluster: four of his five highest air-yards-share games came in the second half of the season, confirming he was absorbing downfield routes as the offense leaned on him more.
32% target share in Week 14 — tied for the Titans' single-game WR season high, and the only time Dike hit that mark.

| Player | Week | Opp | Tgt | Rec | Yds | Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chimere Dike | 14 | CLE | 8 | 5 | 24 | 32.0% |
| Calvin Ridley | 1 | DEN | 8 | 4 | 27 | 32.0% |
| Elic Ayomanor | 4 | HOU | 7 | 2 | 44 | 30.4% |
| Elic Ayomanor | 18 | JAX | 10 | 3 | 50 | 30.3% |
Dike's 32.0% target share in Week 14 ties Calvin Ridley's Week 1 mark for the highest single-game WR target share any Titan posted all season. No WR on the team exceeded 32% in any game.
The context matters: it came in Week 14, with Dike as a rookie, against the Cleveland Browns — not an early-season soft spot. Tennessee's offense gave him a team-high look when it counted.
Ranked 6th among 2025 rookie WRs with 423 yards — inside the productive tier, behind five with 500+ yards.

Dike ranks 6th in his rookie class by receiving yards among WRs with at least 300 yards in 2025. He played all 17 games — only McMillan and Egbuka matched that availability in the top 5.
His 4 TDs tie Ayomanor (5th) and trail only Higgins (6 TDs) and Egbuka (6 TDs) among class peers. On a Titans offense that wasn't a pass-first attack, that TD rate against volume is the strongest part of his rookie case.
