Titans

Titans’ recently promoted WR/return specialist Kalif Raymond said he is grateful for being called up to the team’s active roster. 

“Everybody always tells me: Put the work in and trust yourself,” Raymond said, via Jim Wyatt of the team’s official site. “I am glad I am getting opportunities and now it’s time to make the most of it.”

Titans HC Mike Vrabel said DL Ben Jones is in the concussion protocol and questionable for Sunday’s game. 

“He is in the concussion protocol, and whenever the doctors ask him to go on to the next step he goes on to the next step and I wait and hear,” Vrabel said. “There is nothing more important than the health of our team … especially as it relates to the concussion protocol, having played this game, having kids that play it – I have a son that does play it. It is something that we take very seriously.”
