The Tennessee Titans returned to the practice field on Wednesday in preparation for their Week 13 battle with the Washington Commanders.
Prior to practice head coach Brian Callahan outlined the adjustments being made to deal with the Thanksgiving holiday practice schedule and the impact it will have. Because of those adjustments, he warned that there would be a higher-than-usual amount of players held out on Wednesday, and he was right.
Being held out of Wednesday’s session were defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, linebacker Luke Gifford, outside linebackers Arden Key and Harold Landry, cornerback Roger McCreary, offensive tackle Leroy Watson and wide receiver Calvin Ridley. While some were for rest, others are battling injury, and their status at this point is unknown.
Cornerback Chidobe Awuzie returned to practice as expected and was limited. Cornerback Jarvis Brownlee Jr., defensive back Justin Hardee and running back Tyjae Spears were also limited participants.
