We are just one day away from actual Tennessee Titans football, with the team set to take on the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field in preseason Week 1.
The Titans have gone through three weeks of training camp thus far and while things have begun to take shape in terms of starting battles and guys vying for roster spots, the biggest step in evaluations begin on Saturday.
The Titans plan on playing some starters, according to head coach Mike Vrabel, although it isn’t clear exactly which ones will take the field. Further, the team did not announce who will start at quarterback.
Assuming Ryan Tannehill doesn’t suit up, that figures to be Malik Willis, who was the No. 2 signal-caller going into camp. If that comes to fruition, he’ll be followed by Will Levis, who will be making his NFL debut, something that adds a ton of excitement to this contest.
The battle for the backup quarterback job will be the most interesting thing to watch on Saturday, and we listed both players in our recent article naming players to watch at each position on offense.
But for today, we’re focusing on the defensive side of the ball and specialists. Here is one player to watch at each position, along with some honorable mentions.
