The Tennessee Titans took part in organized team activities for the second straight day on Tuesday, but this time around the session was open to the media.
We have a full roundup of everything beat writers on the ground noted and recorded during Tuesday’s session. You can check that out right here.
One of the more notable things to come from Tuesday was the fact that Titans cornerback Kristian Fulton isn’t in attendance at OTAs yet. Of course, his presence is not mandatory, but you would assume Fulton would be in attendance in what is a make-or-break year for the oft-injured corner.
When asked if Fulton was in the building, Vrabel, who I can’t imagine is a fan of Fulton’s absence considering the circumstances, simply said “nope.”
Kristian Fulton not present at OTAs. Vrabel asked about it gave a one word answer: Nope.

Another interesting development is the fact that the Titans have been giving cornerback Elijah Molden reps at safety, something he spoke about after practice.
Titans note from today, Elijah Molden with lots of safety reps. Kevin Byard not being here is a factor but Molden said he was approached after the season about playing both. Groin healed, no surgery.

Vrabel also touched on that subject following Day 2. Here’s a look at what he had to say about that and more in his post-practice presser.
On CB Elijah Molden getting reps at safety
Mike Vrabel admitted to working Elijah Molden in at the back of the defense (safety). Wanted to further give Molden another role outside of just nickel. #Titans

On QB Malik Willis
Vrabel says what they’ve asked Willis to work on this offseason is bringing a certain demeanor and leadership presence to the team.

On S Kevin Byard's absence
Vrabel says he saw Byard at the golf course Sunday, had a great conversation with him. Expects him at OTAs at some point.
