We will start with those who did not participate in Thursday's session. Jeffery Simmons has already been ruled out and punter Ryan Stonehouse has been declared out for the year, so of course they did not practice. In addition, cornerback Kristian Fulton, who Mike Vrabel said may be out a while, along with linebacker Joe Jones and tight end Josh Whyle also were non-participants.
We also saw six players as limited participants including center Aaron Brewer, linebacker Luke Gifford, defensive lineman T.K. McClendon, running back Derrick Henry, wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and defensive lineman Denico Autry. The latter three were all listed as having rest days.
Finally, the players who were listed, but participated in full were safety Terrell Edmunds, tight end Trevon Wesco and quarterback Will Levis. Levis continues to battle through an ankle injury.
With the game being played on Monday, the Titans have an extra day of preparation and also recovery. That means that there should be more optimism about players being able to suit up by game time.
Miami is dealing with their own long injury list that including eight players not participating on Thursday. That group including star receiver Tyreek Hill and starting left tackle Terron Armstead. So, certainly bares watching, but with the increased recovery time, the same optimism should be extended to the Dolphins.
