Tennessee Titans Release First Injury Report of Week 12, Will Levis Returns
The Tennessee Titans return home in Week 12 for a matchup with the Carolina Panthers. Weekly preparation began with a Tuesday walkthrough session, but Wednesday saw the first normal practice of the week and with it, the first injury update of the week as well.
The biggest takeaway from Wednesday's injury news was the return of starting quarterback Will Levis, who missed Tuesday's walkthrough. Levis' return should calm any worries about the rookie passer missing Sunday's showdown with this year's top pick, Bryce Young.
After missing the last two games, cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting was a full participant in practice and should be in line to return after having surgery on his thumb just a few weeks ago.
We also saw the return of Kristian Fulton on Wednesday. Fulton missed Tuesday's session with a personal matter. Offensive tackle Andre Dillard shed his yellow no-contact jersey, another sign he should be available to return this week after missing Week 11 with a concussion.
There were some absences though. Derrick Henry, Denico Autry and DeAndre Hopkins all missed practice. Normally, that trio would see a rest day on Thursday, but due to the Thanksgiving, this week's adjusted schedule made that fall on Wednesday. Still no reason to worry about the status of any.
Treylon Burks continues to be out after suffering a concussion against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. Burks suffered a concussion in his rookie season as well, so the Titans continue to be cautious with the second-year player.
On the Panthers' side, three players were non-participants on Wednesday in wide receiver Adam Thielen, offensive tackle Taylor Moton and tight end Hayden Hurst. Thielen and Moton were listed as rest days, so they should still be on track to play Sunday.
