NASHVILLE – The Titans returned to the practice field on Thursday at Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park to continue preparations for Sunday's game at the Houston Texans.
Here's a look at today's developments:
Titans receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is on a roll.
Westbrook-Ikhine established a career-high with his fifth touchdown reception of the season in Sunday's game against the Vikings when he scored on a 98-yard touchdown catch, which tied for the longest reception in franchise history.
Westbrook-Ikhine now has five touchdowns in the past six weeks.
Since Week 6, when Westbrook-Ikhine registered his first touchdown reception of the year against the Colts, he is tied with Baltimore tight end Mark Andrews for the third-most touchdown receptions in the NFL.
Only Cincinnati's Ja'Marr Chase (seven) and Detroit's Amon-Ra St. Brown (seven) have more than Westbrook-Ikhine in that span.
"I'm just trying to take advantage of opportunities when they come my way," Westbrook-Ikhine said. "At the end of the day, I just want to help this team win."

-Cornerback L'Jarius Sneed (quad) did not practice on Thursday and he's already been ruled OUT for this weekend's game.
