Rotowire
Interim head coach Mike McCoy told reporters Wednesday that Sneed (quadriceps) will miss time going forward, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

While Sneed is sidelined, expect Marcus Harris to start opposite Jalyn Armour-Davis in the Titans' secondary.

Rotowire
Sneed (quadricep) did not practice Wednesday.

Titans' L'Jarius Sneed: Trending towards playing Week 1
Rotowire
Head coach Brian Callahan said Thursday that Sneed (quadriceps) is "trending in the right direction" to play in Week 1 against the Broncos on Sunday, Sept. 7, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Sneed started training camp on the active/PUP list due to a lingering quadriceps injury from the 2024 season. He was cleared to return to practice at the tail end of training camp, and his practice participation next week will indicate his chances of playing in Tennessee's regular-season opener. Roger McCreary, Darrell Baker and the recently acquired Jalyn Armour-Davis would be the top candidates to start at outside corner opposite Jarvis Brownlee if Sneed is unable to play in Week 1.

Titans' L'Jarius Sneed: Proclaims himself healthy
Rotowire
Sneed (quadriceps) recently said during his football camp that he's healthy and "ready to get back on the field," Buck Reising of 104-5 The Zone reports. "I'm healthy as I've been," Sneed proclaimed.
Sneed missed Tennessee's final 12 games last season due to a quadriceps issue and didn't participate in the Titans' minicamp in mid-June.

It's still not certain that Sneed will be ready for the beginning of Tennessee's training camp, which kicks off July 22.
