The Titans have signed journeyman OT Adam Terry to fill in for David Stewart, who came out of Saturday's game nursing a hamstring injury. My guess is that it's a longshot for Terry to make the 53 man roster, but this is clearly a knock on Mike Otto and Troy Kropog. Both guys have been groomed for a few years to be quality reserves at the tackle spot, but this offseason has seen several veteran guys brought in to fight for their spot.
Karl Klug is making waves in his first NFL training camp, and not just because his name sounds like a bit character from Hogan's Heroes. Perhaps the most shocking aspect of this isn't that Klug was such a late-round, low investment pick compared to Jurrell Casey and Shaun Smith; the most shocking part is that Klug looks more like a Jim Washburn-style DT, weighing in at 275 lbs. Still, what Klug lacks in bulk he makes up for with burst, strength and motor. Those three qualities are usually enough to lead to a long career in the NFL.
Kenny Britt is back to practicing, even though he's not 100%. Munchak is saying that Britt could play in St. Louis this weekend, but the real goal is to have Britt as good as new for the Sept. 11th opener against Jacksonville.
