Mike Mularkey had some encouraging news after practice today concerning Kevin Dodd:
Mularkey said @kdodd98 is running full speed. Said he was running at facility at 630 am today @Titans

It is pretty sad that it is exciting to hear that a guy is running full speed, but that is where we are with Dodd. The plan all along was for him to sit out this portion of the offseason program and be ready for training camp. It appears he is on pace for that, so that is really good news.
The Titans need something from Dodd this year. Brian Orakpo and Derrick Morgan are really good, but that is all they have at outside linebacker. They both have pretty significant injury issues in the past. They were both healthy last year. Can that be repeated?
Today marked the end of the Titans offseason program. This is the scariest portion of the year for NFL coaches and front offices. The players have a little bit more than a month with no football responsibilities.
