Biggest takeaways from Day 8 of Titans training camp

The Tennessee Titans took the practice field for their eighth session of training camp on Friday. Players will have the day off on Saturday before returning to the field on Sunday.

The Titans had a slew of players sit out practice, including cornerback Elijah Molden, who has now missed several in a row. Tennessee also saw a pair of players suffer injuries mid-practice.

On the bright side, two Titans veterans returned to the practice field on Friday, including outside linebacker Bud Dupree, who missed two practices in a row.

After a quiet training camp thus far, 2022 third-round pick and offensive tackle Nicholas Petit-Frere flashed on Friday as he continues to vie for the right tackle spot against Dillon Radunz, who is the favorite.

However, it wasn’t all good for the offensive line, as the group struggled against the defensive front during the 11-on-11 period.

Let’s take a look at those takeaways and more.

Davenport: “Monty Rice did side work [with] trainers.”
