Titans Injury Report: Gifford sits out, Spears Limited

The Tennessee Titans continued their preparations for their Week 3 matchup with the Green Bay Packers on Thursday.

While veterans Jeffery Simmons and L’Jarius Sneed returned to practice after being given an off day, the biggest news was centered on RB Tyjae Spears, who returned in a limited capacity. This in no way indicates whether Spears will be available this week; it does show that he is trending in a positive manner after being listed day-to-day by head coach Brian Callahan.  

Titans LB Luke Gifford sat out Thursday with a back injury after being a full participant on Wednesday.
