Titans, Seahawks begin joint practice ahead of preseason

The Titans and Seahawks are engaging in joint practices in Nashville ahead of Sunday's preseason game at Nissan Stadium, using the sessions to sharpen roster decisions. Titans are watching Tyjae Spears closely as he vies for the RB2 role behind Tony Pollard, while Carnell Tate and Elic Ayomanor look to prove themselves after limited or inconsistent preseason reps. Up front, JC Latham faces a big test against DeMarcus Lawrence, and a potent Titans pass rush duo of Jeffery Simmons and Jermaine Johnson is expected to make an impact. The Titans’ secondary remains a critical focal point after a rough showing against San Francisco, with Cor’Dale Flott and Alontae Taylor under pressure to rebound against Seahawks receivers. Seahawks players emphasize the value of road joint practices for building chemistry and leadership, an approach they’ve used to bond teams in recent seasons. Taken together, the week highlights a mix of opportunities for rookies to prove themselves and veterans to demonstrate they remain essential contributors as the preseason progresses.
