Anthony Firkser – Noteworthy
TE Anthony Firkser was activated from the practice squad last week and caught two passes in his first NFL game. Firkser appears to be a possible receiving tight end option to help pick up some of the slack for the loss of Delanie Walker, as Titans tight ends have virtually disappeared from the offense after Walker went down in Week 1.
Bennie Logan – Noteworthy
DT Bennie Logan returned to practice on Wednesday after missing last week’s game with a foot injury. In Logan’s place, the Titans used rookie Matt Dickerson and Darius Kilgo as potential depth behind the starters on the defensive line.
Derrick Morgan – Noteworthy – Injury
LB Derrick Morgan did not practice and is expected to miss some time after suffering a shoulder injury in the first quarter of the loss to Baltimore.
Kenny Vaccaro – Noteworthy – Injury
S Kenny Vaccaro returned to the practice field on Monday wearing a sleeve to protect his injured left elbow. He dislocated the elbow against the Eagles three weeks ago. Vaccaro was limited in Wednesday’s work.
Marcus Mariota – Noteworthy
QB Marcus Mariota has not been running much the past couple of weeks. He had one scramble for 24 yards, but had just two runs on the day for 25 yards. He ran twice for 10 yards against Buffalo. Teams have been using a spy of late more often on Mariota, but the Titans have not been able to take advantage in the passing game.
Quinton Spain – Noteworthy – Injury
G Quinton Spain did not practice due to a shoulder injury on Wednesday. Spain suffered the injury Sunday vs. Baltimore and was said to be “day-to-day” according to head coach Mike Vrabel.
Wesley Woodyard – Noteworthy – Injury
LB Wesley Woodyard, out two weeks with a shoulder injury, practiced again on Wednesday. If Woodyard can make it back onto the playing field, it would be a big boost to the Titans defense, which has struggled the past two games – especially Sunday vs the Ravens.
Will Compton – Noteworthy – Injury
LB Will Compton remained out of practice on Wednesday with a hamstring injury. The Titans brought up Robert Spillane from the practice squad last week to help fill in for Compton and Wesley Woodyard.
