Tennessee Titans

Carnell Tate

WR

After missing Wednesday's practice due to stiffness, Tate is back on the field for the final session before Sunday's preseason game against Seattle. It remains to be seen if he'll play in the upcoming exhibition, but it looks like he'll be fine for Week 1.

Mitchell Trubisky

QB

Trubisky exited Monday's practice due to the initial biceps issue, making Wednesday's absence a pattern. The backup quarterback's injury is apparently not a huge issue, and Trubisky is still day-to-day as he manages it. If the Titans want to stay safe with their first line of defense if Cam Ward goes down, they will likely have Will Levis or Hendon Hooker play most of the snaps in Sunday's preseason showdown with the Seahawks.

Tony Pollard

RB

Pollard missed Monday's practice after taking four carries for 22 yards and a TD in last Thursday's preseason opener against San Francisco. A quick return to the practice field suggests he'll be fine for Week 1, regardless of participation (or lack thereof) in the upcoming exhibition against Seattle on Sunday. Pollard was in for nine of Cam Ward's 22 snaps last week, with Tyjae Spears playing the other 13 snaps and taking five touches for 39 yards.

D'Ernest Johnson

RB

Tennessee marks the fifth NFL stop for the 30-year-old running back, who has previously spent time in the Browns, Jaguars, Ravens and Patriots organizations. He's averaged a respectable 4.4 yards per carry and 8.8 yards per reception over 103 career regular-season games and is also capable of contributing as a kickoff returner. He'll give the Titans some healthy depth in the backfield for the duration of the preseason while the likes of Tony Pollard (undisclosed), Nicholas Singleton (foot) and Kalel Mullings (hip) continue to nurse injuries, but Johnson will still face an uphill battle to make the 53-man roster.

Nazeeh Johnson

S

Johnson underwent ankle surgery Tuesday, so a move to IR isn't a surprise. The cornerback was set to serve a six-game suspension at the start of the regular season as well, which will be considered served even if he does not actively participate in practice. If Johnson thinks he can play in 2026, he will need to reach an injury settlement with the Titans to be released from the team's IR.
