Young to Remain Titans #2 QB
Staff Report
Aug 31, 2009
Tennessee Titans Coach Jeff Fisher put any backup QB controversy to rest yesterday stating Vince Young is his team's #2.
"He’s always been our No. 2 quarterback and he’ll
remain that," Fisher said. "He’s done a nice job most of the time on
the field in games as well as on the practice field."
Young is 34-of-57 passing for 377 yards, with three touchdowns and three interceptions in four preseason games.
Young bounced back from two turnovers against the Browns to finish
17-of-24 for 174 yards
and a TD. "
He’s taken responsibility for things," said Fisher. "He knows the
position is not an easy position to play, and there’s going to be some
negative plays, but you have to move on."
Fisher said Patrick Ramsey would be the Titans No.
3 quarterback if the team carried more than two. Ramsey did not play
Saturday night due to sore ribs but is expected to return to action
this week in time for Thursday's final preseason game against the
Packers.
