Tajae Sharpe, not Tre McBride, is the WR the Titans will miss
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The most controversial roster decision the Titans made, at least according to my Twitter timeline, was keeping veteran receiver Harry Douglas.
A lot of your really love Tre McBride, who was cut and claimed by the Bears.
After a day on the 53-man roster, Douglas was placed on IR with the knee injury that hampered him during camp. He is eligible to be recalled later in the season.
Return man and special teamer Eric Weems, who can play receiver if needed, was re-signed.
So the Titans go into the Raiders game with Rishard Matthews, Eric Decker, Taywan Taylor and a limited Corey Davis as their receivers, with Weems available to help out.
That’s fine so long as they stay healthy. I think Decker will be totally ready to play after the team was super cautious with him following a camp ankle injury. Davis will have to work up to a full load, so he will start out as a spot player after missing a ton of time with a hamstring injury suffered early in camp.
