    Burrow missed the Sept. 21 practice and was limited on Friday and Saturday. He was listed as full in Wednesday’s estimated report.

    Tight end Irv Smith Jr. missed his second consecutive practice after sitting out Monday’s game with a hamstring injury. He was present at practice today but did not work.

    Rookie punt returner and wide receiver Charlie Jones injured his right hand in the 19-16 win against the Rams while also recording his first career catch. He was not present at practice today during the portion open to the media and was listed as a non-participant.

    Linebacker Akeem Davis-Gaither showed up as a surprise limited participant Friday with a knee injury and did not practice Saturday, but he played Monday and practiced Wednesday without an injury designation.

    But he was back on the injury report today, listed as limited with the knee.

    For the Titans, wide receiver Treylon Burks was downgraded from limited Wednesday to out today. Four other Tennessee players missed practice. Running back Derrick Henry was not on the injury report Wednesday, but he was listed as limited today due to a toe injury and a partial rest day.
