Britt, Washington will see more action against Detroit

The Titans should get a boost in the passing game against Detroit as Nate Washington and Kenny Britt continue to see their health improve.

Washington didn’t practice at all last week due to a leg contusion, and he was on the field for just 22 of the Titans’ 42 offensive snaps. Britt, playing in his first game in close to a year, was on the field for 19 snaps.

The two combined for just three catches and 25 yards.

“I’m assuming Nate is over the hump with his leg, so he should be okay as far practicing on Wednesday,” Titans coach Mike Munchak said. “Kenny got through pretty well for playing about 19 plays, which is what we talked about him doing, so that worked out decent there.

“It’s just a matter of – I’m sure he’s sore – (but) having another good week of practice, so he can start running more routes and doing different things that maybe he couldn’t do this weekend. So hopefully he’ll continue to add to that number as we go.”

Running back Javon Ringer (elbow) and tackle Mike Otto (finger, knee) are expected to return to practice this week, and defensive tackle Sen’Derrick Marks (knee) should be able to play against Detroit.

The big injury questionmark remains starting middle linebacker Colin McCarthy, who missed Sunday’s game with an ankle injury and remains in a walking boot.

Said Munchak: “McCarthy is probably the only one we don’t know yet until we get into the week.”
