Tennessee Titans rookie cornerback Jarvis Brownlee Jr. looks to have avoided a serious injury during Wednesday’s padded practice.
Brownlee went down on the field during the team period after colliding with wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine at the top of the route.
After a visit with the training staff, Brownlee walked off under his own power, holding the right side of his back. However, he put his helmet back on and jogged over to the sideline to join his teammates, reports AtoZ Sports.

While padded practices are an exciting point in training camp, you always fear about injuries occurring.
Brownlee has been getting first-team reps with Chidobe Awuzie nursing a calf injury. He has been one of the stand-out performers in camp thus far, especially since the pads have been put on.
On Tuesday, he had a couple of pass break-ups on wideouts Kearis Jackson and Tyler Boyd. The rookie defensive back followed that up with a break-up on Calvin Ridley in 1-on-1 dills on Wednesday.
The 23-year-old has been a perfect fit in defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson’s aggressive scheme after being selected in the fifth round of this year’s draft.
