The Tennessee Titans conclude the NFL preseason with Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints at Caesars Superdome.
Brian Callahan said this week that the Titans’ starters will play several series on Sunday. Will Levis and the Titans’ offense were absent from last week’s game against Seattle, but the Titans’ starters will get a chance to improve before the regular season. According to multiple reports, New Orleans is not expected to use its starters.
Week 1 in Chicago is two weeks away, but roster reduction day is Tuesday, giving players on the roster bubble their last chance to make an impact on the field.

Tennessee Titans vs. New Orleans Saints: Live updates and highlights from the NFL preseason game
The Titans gain 84 yards in nine plays, spurred by a 22-yard screen receiver from TE Nick Vannett and a 22-yard pass receiver from Tyler Boyd on a crossing route. After a DPI on a pass intended for Treylon Burks, Tony Pollard scores a 1-yard touchdown run with Daniel Brunskill as the lead blocker at fullback.
Brian Callahan captured a lot of things on film on this drive that Chicago should be worried about in Week 1.
After a first down attempt by the Saints, the Titans defense forces a stop and a punt near the halfway line. T’Vondre Sweat finally put pressure on Saints QB Jake Haener on the third down, forcing a bad throw, although good coverage also helped.
Next up is Will Levis and the Titans offense.
As planned, Jeffery Simmons and Harold Landry will not play today. Otherwise, it is the Titans who will play with these healthy players in the starting defense. Jarvis Brownlee Jr. will have a lot of snaps today at cornerback.
The Saints’ second offensive team, led by Jake Haener, gets the ball first.
