NASHVILLE – The Titans returned to the practice field on Wednesday at Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park to continue preparations for Sunday's game at the Washington Commanders.
Here's a look at today's developments:
-Titans quarterback Will Levis has made strides since coming back from his right shoulder injury.
In weeks 1-5, the Titans averaged 139.8 passing yards per game with Levis, with a 70.7 rating and five touchdowns vs seven interceptions.
In weeks 10-12, the Titans have averaged 249.3 passing yards per game, with a 109.3 rating by Levis, and five touchdowns with only two interceptions.
Levis feels like the team has built some momentum along the way.
"For sure," Levis said after Wednesday's practice. "Putting together some good performances on all sides of the ball, and improving. (I) feel like we're putting more consistent ball on tape. But the exciting thing is there's still a lot to get better at, and a lot to clean up to put us in a better opportunity to win games.
"Hopefully we can get through this week and keep improving and put together a winning performance on Sunday."
-The Titans designated cornerback Chidobe Awuzie to return earlier today, and on Wednesday he practiced for the first time since before the team's September 22 game against the Packers.
