TE Blake Bell | Back | FP |
LT Orlando Brown | Groin | FP |
Shin | FP | |
Ankle | FP | |
CB L’Jarius Sneed | Wrist | FP |
* DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Anthony Hitchens was spotted wearing a sling on his right elbow out at practice today. It’s safe to assume he won’t play in Week 7.
Despite no practice for the second consecutive day, I’d expect both Joe Thuney and Tyreek Hill to practice in some capacity tomorrow and play on Sunday. Chris Jones and Charvarius Ward likely need full practices on Friday to be sure things for Sunday.
The only changes to today’s injury report for Kansas City are the return of Trey Smith and Jarran Reed. Both returned to full participation after being limited on Wednesday.

WR A.J. Brown | Illness | DNP |

CB Chris Jackson | Ankle | LP |
WR Julio Jones | Hamstring | LP |

Shoulder | FP | |
Shoulder | LP | |
Rest | DNP | |
OLB Bud Dupree | Knee | LP |
* DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Derrick Henry got the day off on Thursday while Bud Dupree was limited with a knee injury. Look for Dupree’s status on Friday to be an indicator of his availability on Sunday.
Four players who were non-participants for the Titans on Wednesday returned to practice, the most significant being Julio Jones, who was limited with a hamstring injury.
Kicker Randy Bullock missed the first practice of the week with a shoulder injury but returned as a full participant on Thursday. That’ll be an injury to monitor during the course of the game on Sunday, especially if he needs to make a tackle on special teams.
