Tennessee Titans cornerback Caleb Farley has returned to practice with the team for the first time since the tragic death of his father in August.
According to Jim Wyatt, Farley was on the practice field on Wednesday, which is his first practice of the 2023 season.
It remains to be seen if Farley will be able to play in Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks, but first he’ll have to be activated from the physically unable to perform list, where he was placed during the offseason after undergoing back surgery.
Regardless of whether he plays or not, it’s great to see Farley back on the field after the unspeakable tragedy he went through over the summer.

If he can get back on the field, Farley has an opportunity to get plenty of snaps, as Tennessee is currently short-handed in the secondary after fellow cornerback Kristian Fulton was placed on injured reserve.
Not to mention, it would be good for Farley to get the reps so the Titans have a better idea of what they’re working with ahead of what will be an offseason that is sure to see plenty of change up and down the roster.
Farley has struggled mightily over his first two seasons in the NFL, both with performance and injury. As a result, his future with the team is in a bad spot, but he’ll have another season in 2024 to revive his stock.
