Restrepo recorded two catches on six targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Seahawks.
Restrepo was elevated from the practice squad to make his NFL debut with Calvin Ridley (fibula) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) sidelined. He only played 18 offensive snaps (26 percent), though he was targeted heavily by Cam Ward when on the field. Restrepo wasn't efficient with the opportunity, but he will likely continue to get chances down the stretch in a rebuilding season for Tennessee. For the time being, he'll revert to the Titans' practice squad Monday.

Rotowire
The Titans elevated Restrepo from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Restrepo is slated to make his NFL regular-season debut against the Seahawks on Sunday. Given his college connection with quarterback Cam Ward, coupled with the absences of Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) and Calvin Ridley (fibula - IR), Restrepo could see some snaps on offense right off the bat, though it would likely be in a rotational role behind the likes of Chimere Dike, Van Jefferson, Mason Kinsey and James Proche.
