NASHVILLE – The Titans returned to the practice field on Friday at Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park to continue preparations for Sunday's season finale against the Houston Texans at Nissan Stadium.
Here's a look at today's developments:
-Will Levis will be the team's starter at quarterback on Sunday, Titans coach Brian Callahan said after today's practice.
The plan is for both Levis and Mason Rudolph to play against the Texans.
"We'll let him take a shot to finish the season on a good note, and play well," Callahan said of Levis. "That's the idea."
Callahan said it remains to be seen how the quarterbacks will be used exactly.
"If a guy is playing well, I'd like for him to keep playing," Callahan said. "But they will rotate, and Mason will play at some point. I am almost certain he'll play at some point in the first half.
"It won't be like a half and half thing. But if Will is playing well and he is feeling it, I'd like him to keep playing."
Callahan ruled OUT a seven of players for Sunday's game:
-Safety Amani Hooker (shoulder) has been ruled OUT.
-Running back Tyjae Spears (concussion) has been ruled OUT.
-Outside linebacker Arden Key (hand) has been ruled OUT.
-Linebacker Otis Reese (ankle) has been ruled OUT.
-Kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) has been ruled OUT.
-Receiver Tyler Boyd (foot) has been ruled OUT.
-Tackle Jaelyn Duncan (shoulder) has been ruled OUT.
Other Titans on the Injury Report:
-Running back Tony Pollard (ankle) did not practice on Friday.
Pollard is listed as QUESTIONABLE on the team's Injury Report.
Callahan said he'll be a gametime decision.
-Guard Dillon Radunz (shoulder) practiced on Friday.
-Tight end Chig Okonkwo (abdomen) did not practice on Friday.

-Callahan said John Ojukwu will be the team's starter at right tackle and Nicholas Petit-Frere will be the swing tackle.
-Callahan said guard Daniel Brunskill will be the team's extra captain for Sunday's game.
-Callahan said cornerback L'Jarius Sneed had a procedure on his quad, a bone marrow injection. Callahan said doctors had to immobilize Sneed's quad to allow the quad muscle to heal, and the injection was done to speed up the process. "Everything seems to be on track," Callahan said, "and pretty good for what's to come."
