Brian Callahan provided some injury updates yesterday on a few guys that are pretty important to the Tennessee Titans this season. Center Lloyd Cushenberry could start some side work this week. That’s an encouraging sign as he works his way back from an Achilles injury. The offensive line has looked solid so far, but it will be better with Cush back out there.
The news is not as positive on L’Jarius Sneed. There isn’t any new news, but it doesn’t sound like he’s all that close to being back on the field. How mad are we all going to be when he starts the season on short-term injured reserve? No one has said that, but it just feels like that is what is going to happen.
Rookie safety Kevin Winston Jr. continues to battle some soreness. It seems that it is related to his recovery from the ACL injury last season. That should probably be expected coming back from that surgery. I’d be surprised if he goes this week at all in the practices against the Atlanta Falcons.
T’Vondre Sweat apparently had a tonsillectomy, according to Jim Wyatt. If that had been reported before, I missed it. That’s a pretty tough thing to recover from when you are an adult.
The Titans will hold joint practices with the Falcons Tuesday and Wednesday.
