The Tennessee Titans were back on the practice field on Wednesday, but this time they shared it with the Minnesota Vikings for Day 1 of joint practices between the two teams.
Tennessee and Minnesota will have a pair of joint sessions in all, with the second one taking place on Thursday. After that, the two teams will meet in preseason Week 2 at U.S. Bank Stadium on Saturday, with kickoff set for 8 p.m. ET.
The biggest story of the day was no doubt the injury to Treylon Burks, who went down with an apparent leg injury after making a catch during team period. The exact injury and severity remains unknown as of this writing.
UPDATE: We can all breathe a sigh of relief, as Treylon Burks is only expected to miss a few weeks (READ MORE HERE).
