NASHVILLE – The Titans returned to the practice field on Thursday at Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park to continue preparations for Sunday's season opener against the Denver Broncos.
Here's a look at the developments from the day:
-The sight of left tackle Dan Moore Jr. on Wednesday's Injury Report was a concern for a lot of Titans fans.
Seeing Moore back at practice on Thursday, and looking good, should calm them down.
Moore said on Thursday he's good to go with the ankle, and he's ready to make his Titans debut as part of a revamped offensive line.
Moore was listed as a full participant on Thursday's Injury Report.
"As a collective, there's cohesion," Moore said of the unit. "Hanging around each other, building that relationship, I think that's the biggest thing. And I think that's going to play the biggest part in communication on the road on Sunday."
Moore, who played his first four seasons with the Steelers, feels like he made strides this offseason in Tennessee while working under the tutelage of offensive line coach Bill Callahan, and he's ready to show it on Sunday.
"I think coach (Bill) Callahan has helped me a lot," Moore said. "I am excited to get out there on Sunday and see what I look like Game 1 against some real competition. I think he has helped me and my game, and that's what we talked about before me coming here. So I just want to see it come to fruition."
-Cornerback L'Jarius Sneed (knee) was listed as a limited participant once again on Thursday's Injury Report.
-Safety Kevin Winston Jr. continues to recover from his hamstring injury. Winston was also listed as limited once again in Thursday's session.
-Titans rookie receiver Elic Ayomanor was listed as one of the team's starters on the initial depth chart, and he said he wants to make an impact.
"I'm just excited to go out there and play football," Ayomanor said. "It's been my dream for a long time, I have been doing it … and living my dream.
"I just want to get the opportunity that I have, and take advantage of it."
Here's more from Ayomanor:
-Edge rusher Femi Oladejo is another rookie ready to make his NFL debut.
Oladejo is anticipating a big jump in intensity and speed going from the preseason to the regular season.
Here's Oladejo in the locker room on Thursday:
-And here's veteran receiver Tyler Lockett, who is set to begin his 11th NFL season, his first with the Titans:
-The Broncos released their second injury report on Thursday, and it looked like this: TE Nate Adkins (ankle) and LB Dre Greenlaw (quad) did not practice for the second day in a row. OLB Dondrea Tillman (hamstring) and DT Malcolm Roach (calf) were added to the Injury Report, and listed as limited participants.
