Teams Tennessee Titans - The Music City Oilers ™

Titans placed RB Brian Hill on injured reserve.
Hill was injured in the Titans' final preseason game but details on the injury are unknown. He was competing with Darrynton Evans for RB2 work in Tennessee. With Hill now done for the year, Evans should be locked into that role, making him a high-upside stash for the unlikely scenario that Derrick Henry gets hurt. Evans will also play on some third downs as Henry is primarily a threat on the ground.

Titans released DE John Simon.
The Titans also moved on from defensive lineman Freedom Akinmoladun, linebacker Cassh Maluia, and defensive backs Nate Brooks and Clayton Geathers. Teams must get to a 53-man roster by Tuesday afternoon so expect many more cuts to come rolling in through the next few days. Simon started 16 games for the Patriots last year but only recorded two sacks. He could land with another team as a depth option at some point this year.

The Titans traded up to take wide receiver Dez Fitzpatrick in the fourth round of this year’s draft, but the move did not result in a roster spot.

Fitzpatrick was waived in one of 17 moves that the Titans made to get their roster to 53 players on Tuesday. Fitzpatrick had three catches for 58 yards and a touchdown in the preseason, but the Titans are moving forward with Julio Jones, A.J. Brown, Josh Reynolds, Marcus Johnson, Chester Rogers, Cameron Batson and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine at receiver.

They also have Racey McMath on the COVID-19 reserve list along with eight other players. Activating those players will require furter roster shuffling, so many players who made the team on Tuesday may not be there for long.

In addition to Fitpatrick, the Titans waived wide receivers Mason Kinsey and Fred Brown; tight ends Jared Pinkney and Miller Forristall, running back Javian Hawkins and Tory Carter; defensive linemen Naquan Jones and Woodrow Hamilton; offensive linemen Cole Banwart, Jordan Roos, Derwin Gray and Christian DiLauro; linebackers Jan Johnson and Wyatt Ray; and defensive backs Jamal Carter and Briean Boddy-Calhoun.

Looking forward to what my Titans show this season. The big 3 on offence should do their thing. Worried about the injuries to the Oline already. Big Jeff should have a breakout year on D. Surely our whole D improves from the disaster of last season.
 
Will be interesting to see how Dupree goes. Hopefully get some reps into Caleb Farley early and let him loose midway through the season.

Would love to be in Nashville for week 1. Broadway will be pumping.
 
Audio low....basically says, here in Memphis. That for the longest time, all the old school former Oilers players never had a place they could all come to to watch practice and be a part of the org's culture, because the Titans had moved on. So it would be nice if the Titans started trying to be a family etc (like the Raiders, Steelers, etc do). Indeed, it's starting to do that.

 
Seeing as the Jets are (still) shithouse for the 10th consecutive season and the Panthers decided to go with Darnold a Jets reject, I'm on the Titans again for the rest of this season. Love Henry and Tannehill is surprisingly competent (at Miami I thought he was a joke).

Titans have a dream run the rest of the year going @Colts, @ Rams, Saints, Texans, @Pats, Jags, @ Steelers, 49ers, Dolphins, @Texans

At 5-2 they really should finish with a 13-4 or 14-3 record which might be enough for the bye in the AFC. Chiefs are done, Ravens have a tough run home (ending with 2x Browns, 2x Steelers, Rams, Bengals and Packers in the last 7 games) Bills in the box seat and have an easy run (only the Bucs game they are likely to go in underdog).

Lets go Titans!

Jets beat the Titans mate. :$
 
No idea how that happened, Titans had a few key players missing that day - I'll back Tennessee over the Jets head to head record for the rest of the season if you're willing to wager on it :cool:

Joe Flacco is going to turn the Jets season around!
 
For years, Derrick Henry made boundaries obsolete. He functioned outside the norms of his sport and operated somewhere near the outskirts of athletic capacity. He withstood an outlandish workload at a position where fragility is expected. He became indispensable at a role whose practitioners are considered interchangeable. He weighs 247 pounds, and on one touchdown run he ran faster than any other ballcarrier this season. He shattered the limitations placed on NFL running backs. He stood alone.

Football can claim even the furthest outlier as its physical victim. On Sunday, Henry broke a bone in his foot but played the rest of an overtime victory that allowed the Tennessee Titans to move into the top spot in the AFC. On Monday, Henry underwent tests that revealed the damage. The injury will require surgery, and while the team didn’t announce a timetable for his return, it seems likely to sideline him for the rest of regular season, if not the playoffs, too.


Henry had become an invulnerable force. While carrying the ball more than any other player in the league, he has missed one game because of injury in his career. The Titans leaned on him this season more than ever. He was on pace for 474 touches over 16 games, which would have been the second-highest total in NFL history. It he could play all 17 games, he might have set the all-time mark.

An NFL legend is back in the league. According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Tennessee Titans have signed running back Adrian Peterson to the practice squad and plan to elevate him to the active roster.
 
Time for RT to step now Henry is out. Need to get Julio fit and firing. Surprisingly our patched up secondary is going ok. Good to see Byard playing well again.
Unfortunately i think Donald and Miller will have field day on Monday. Taken Monday off work to watch the game. #titanup
 
The saving grace is the cupcake schedule the Titans have - they've almost done enough to guarantee a playoff spot so just get to January and hope Henry can return for playoffs.

Yep the schedule works in our favour and also the Week 13 bye. Need Saffold and rest of OLine stay healthy. Radnuz seems to be going ok I’m the reps he is getting.

Cupcake!?

it’s easier from here, yes, but have you seen our start to the year? 1 game was a ‘gimme’ & we blew it, the other ‘gimme’ we won.
2nd half is pleasing but without The King nothing is certain.
