Titans injury report: L’Jarius Sneed sits out again

The Tennessee Titans returned to the practice field Wednesday and released their first injury report for the week.

The Tennessee Titans are banged up as they prepare to take the field Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10 action. Prior to hitting the field to start preparations for this one, the Titans made a couple of injury-related roster moves. 

The team officially placed center Lloyd Cushenberry (Achilles) and safety Quandre Diggs (foot) on injured reserve, likely ending their seasons. To fill one of the roster spots, the Titans signed veteran safety Mike Edwards, who was in Tennessee Wednesday for a physical. 


Once they hit the field, eyes were on the players who sat out the Week 9 victory due to injury to see if there was any chance of a return to action. Unfortunately, cornerback L’Jarius Sneed continued to be sidelined with his quad injury. He was joined on the sideline by defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons.

Quarterback Will Levis, guard Dillon Radunz, and running back Tony Pollard led the group of eight players that were limited, which included newly acquired safety Mike Edwards. 

Cornerback Tre Avery returned as a full participant with his hamstring injury. 

The Titans’ Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: CB L’Jarius Sneed (quad), Jeffery Simmons (NIR/rest)

Limited Participant: RB Tony Pollard (foot), WR Tyler Boyd (shoulder), WR Calvin Ridley (NIR/rest), S Armani Hooker (groin), G Dillon Radunz (foot), QB Will Levis (shoulder), RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring), S Mike Edwards (NIR/rest)

Full participants: CB Tre Avery (hamstring)

Report: Titans to sign former Bills safety Mike Edwards

The Tennessee Titans are in need of secondary depth and appear to be on the verge of signing former Buffalo Bills safety Mike Edwards.

The Tennessee Titans are banged up in the secondary. Starting cornerback L’Jarius Sneed is on the shelf with a quad injury, and after losing safety Quandre Diggs against the New England Patriots, they are in desperate need of reinforcements.

A day after adding cornerback Daryl Worley and defensive back Gervarrius Owens to the practice squad, word is coming out that they are in the process of signing veteran safety Mike Edwards to help fill the void left by Diggs’s injury. 


Edwards does have some experience and is a two-time Super Bowl champion. He has spent time with Tampa Bay, Kansas City and Buffalo. In the midst of a disappointing 2024, where he has notched only seven snaps for the Bills, he was granted his release on Tuesday. In his career, he has seen action in 78 games with 28 starts during his six-year NFL career.

After losing Diggs to injury, the Titans’ depth at safety is thin with starter Amani Hooker, reserve Mike Brown and rookie Julius Wood after they released safety Jamal Adams in October. 

The Titans (2-6) visit the Los Angeles Chargers (5-3) on Sunday at SoFi Stadium.

Report: Titans’ Quandre Diggs suffers season-ending injury

The Tennessee Titans received some bad news Monday learning safety Quandre Diggs will be lost for the season.

The Tennessee Titans pulled out a 20-17 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday, but the victory came at a heavy price. Hours after news broke that starting center Lloyd Cushenberry would be lost for the season with an Achilles injury, a report has surfaced that the team will be without a second starter moving forward. 

Safety Quandre Diggs left the game against the Patriots with a foot injury and now will be on the shelf for the remainder of the season after being diagnosed with a season-ending Lisfranc injury that will require surgery. 


Diggs, who signed a one-year contract earlier in the offseason, now faces a 6-9 month recovery period and may have played his last game with the Titans. Diggs stepped into the defense and played a huge role in the unit’s success. His loss will be a big blow for the Titans moving forward. 

Against the Patriots, safety Mike Brown stepped in and took over his spot next to Amani Hooker and played well. For the Titans to maintain their momentum, they will need Brown to build upon that performance. 

The Titans will be back at practice on Wednesday to start preparations for their Week 10 battle with the Los Angeles Chargers.

Titans’ Quandre Diggs exits Week 9 game with foot injury

The Tennessee Titans lost safety Quandre Diggs during their Week 9 battle with the New England Patriots.

The Tennessee Titans and New England Patriots are tied 10-10 at the end of the third quarter in their Week 9 battle. 

Unfortunately, the Titans will be without another important member of their secondary for the rest of this contest. Safety Quandre Diggs will not return after injuring his foot according to Jim Wyatt. 

Prior to the injury, Diggs recorded three tackles (two solo). Mike Brown will step in at free safety for the rest of the contest

Titans’ Quandre Diggs on Jamal Adams ‘It sucks he’s not here anymore’

Tennessee Titans S Quandre Diggs spoke to reporters after his friend Jamal Adams was released on Thursday.

Early Thursday, the Tennessee Titans released former Pro Bowl S Jamal Adams after his short stint on the reserve/non-football injury list. 

Adams, who signed with the Titans in July, was never able to make the impact on the field that the team envisioned when signing him to a one-year deal. Injuries buried him on the depth chart, and he was limited to 20 defensive snaps in three games. 

Even with his minimal production on the field, Adams’ presence will continue to be felt even after his release. As S Quandre Diggs points out, Adams is the main reason he signed with Tennessee this offseason, and Diggs is a major contributor to the Titans’ defense. 

“It sucks that he’s not here anymore,” Diggs said, “He’s the reason I came here.”

While he didn’t go into specifics about Adams’s plans moving forward, it was clear that Adams was frustrated with the situation in Tennessee and that the rift between him and the organization could not be repaired. The Titans signed Tre Avery on Tuesday to take Adams’s open roster spot and add secondary depth.

Around the NFL: Titans safety Jamal Adams ruled OUT for Week 1

Around the NFL: Titans safety Jamal Adams ruled OUT for Week 1

The least surprising news of the weekend has dropped. On Friday, it was announced that Tennessee Titans safety Jamal Adams has been ruled out with a hip injury. After missing the last few days of practice, it seems Adams’ career with the Titans will begin where he spent most of it with the Seahawks – on the sideline.

https://twitter.com/TomPelissero/status/1832107767647367582

Adams was released by Seattle this offseason. There were rumors the Seahawks wanted him back, but at a different position. However, that was not something Adams was interested in, and he was eventually signed to a one-year, veteran minimum contract in Tennessee. Moving to Nashville has become Adams’ newest NFL home, and he was eventually accompanied with his fellow Seahawks teammate, Quandre Diggs.

When healthy, and utilized properly, Adams can be a unique defensive weapon. However, “when healthy” seems to be an important qualifier these days. Unfortunately, the Pro Bowler cannot seem to keep his body in tact to withstand a full NFL season.

The NFL season is a marathon, not a sprint. Here’s hoping a missed week initially means Adams can be preserved down the road to have success in the Music City.

Ex Seahawks safeties Quandre Diggs, Jamal Adams unveiled on Titans depth chart

The Seattle Seahawks saved more than $17 million against the 2024 salary cap by releasing veteran safeties Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs earlier this offseason. General manager John Schneider officially ushered in a new era in the defensive backfield by moving on from those two mainstays. It turned out that Adams and Diggs will continue playing together this season, because both of them signed with the Tennessee Titans in free agency.

The Titans play the Chicago Bears in their Week 1 matchup on Sunday. Like every other team in the league, the Titans released an updated depth chart ahead of Sunday’s debut contest. Diggs is listed as a starting safety, whereas Adams must settle for a reserve rotational role.

Diggs is scheduled to start opposite Amani Hooker. Perhaps playing Adams in a backup, sub-package role will keep him healthier than he managed to stay in Seattle throughout his final seasons with the Seahawks. Adams chose the Titans in free agency partially due to his familiarity with their defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson, who coached him with the New York Jets prior to the blockbuster trade that sent him to Seattle.

New Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald had a different vision for his defense, nor could Schneider realistically afford Adams’ and Diggs’ bloated cap charges this year. Seattle will move forward with Julian Love and Rayshawn Jenkins as their new starting safeties. Macdonald will debut his defense against the Denver Broncos in Sunday’s Week 1 game.

On paper, Titans’ offseason ‘spending spree’ pays off

The Tennessee Titans made a rash of moves during the offseason. Now it is time to see how this $228.2 Million spending spree pays off.

After the Tennessee Titans’ 2024 offseason began, general manager Ran Carthon set out with a vision to improve the team after a dismal 6-11 performance in 2023. Now, after a complete overhaul of the coaching staff and spending a reported $228.2 million to retool the roster, it’s time to see the results. 

https://twitter.com/tdavenport_nfl/status/1830586600247722071?s=46&t=SeOZebZdMRZIJ99t7aMgTQ

On paper, the Titans appear to be in a good place. Offensively, they built around second-year quarterback Will Levis, using both free agency and the draft to bolster the unit. 

After signing center Lloyd Cushenberry III to a four-year, $50 million contract, the team selected offensive tackle JC Latham with the No. 7 selection in the NFL draft. Infusing talent into a unit that struggled mightily in 2023. 

With Levis being the key to the offense, the Titans added to their skill positions with moves that added talented playmakers to the roster. Running back Tony Pollard, wide receivers Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd came aboard to assist Levis, hold-overs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and running back Tyjae Spears to potentially create one of the most dynamic Titans’ offenses in recent memory.  

Carthon didn’t stop there. Turning to the defensive side of the ball, they added an array of veterans to bolster the aggressive style that the Titans want to employ.  Free agent cornerback Chidobe Awuzie, safeties Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs, and inside linebacker Kenneth Murray Jr. were brought in. He also hit the trade market, securing cornerback L’Jarius Sneed and, most recently, linebacker Ernest Jones IV in different transactions. 

With pre-season in the books, there is good reason to be optimistic about the Titans’ potential. In less than a week, fans will see how well this spending spree translates into the regular season when the Titans open up against the Chicago Bears on Sunday, Sept. 7. 

Titans’ play the ‘jersey’ numbers game

New faces, new numbers; the Tennessee Titans announce jersey number changes heading into the regular season.

The Tennessee Titans have made a few changes since their initial 53-man roster was announced. They have claimed players from waivers and added players to the practice squad. In addition, some players have changed their jersey numbers heading into the regular season. 

Newly acquired linebacker Ernest Jones is the most notable. The team hopes the veteran solidifies the spot alongside Kenneth Murray Jr., who will continue to wear the No. 53 he wore during the past two seasons with the Los Angeles Rams. 

After being claimed on waivers, former Houston Texans pass rusher Ali Gaye will wear No. 59, and former Dallas Cowboys defensive back Julius Wood will have No. 24 on his jersey. The Titans were awarded former Indianapolis Colts cornerback Darrell Baker Jr. off waivers on Thursday, but his number has not been released.  

The Titans also announced a number of changes for some players already on the roster. Defensive lineman Abdullah Anderson, the No. 94, safety Quandre Diggs  No. 28, outside linebacker Khalid Duke No. 47 and defensive lineman Isaiah Iton No. 95. 

With the season opener a little over a week away, stay tuned for any and all roster updates.

Trash talk reigns supreme between the Seahawks and Titans at practice

Trash talk reigns supreme between the Seahawks and Titans at practice

This is what we have been waiting to hear, right? At least deep down, we have been hoping for a little bit of spice from the joint practices between the Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans. Naturally, trash talk can only be expected when professional athletes take the field against one another, whether it is a game or practice.

But in this case, there is a little extra juice. Tennessee has recently acuired a pair of former Seahawks in Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs. Both of whom are some of the more verbal players out there. Of course, Adams and Diggs had plenty to say to their former teammates, but the Seahawks – particularly from Devon Witherspoon – didn’t refrain from chirping back at them.

Here is a compilation of tweets from those covering the practice live:

Fortunately, this was all in good fun between the two teams. Quandre Diggs and Devon Witherspoon were both asked about it after practice, and the two of them confirmed as much.

This Seahawks team is no stranger to a little bit of “extracirricular activities” at practice, as there were multiple fights at practice last week. But against the Titans these last two days, the team has been on their best behavior… so to speak. Head coach Mike Macdonald praised his squad for keeping their composure, even amidst the trash talk.

“The guys realize, just like we said yesterday, we’re going to be evaulated by what shows up on tape,” said Macdonald after practice. “If we’re getting into fights and we’re not keeping our composure, that’s not the best for us or the team. God forbid someone got hurt during that time, which is just totally unnecessary, things you want to avoid. The guys did a great job!
