Locker has horrible practice

The final night practice of training camp turned into a nightmare for Titans quarterback Jake Locker.

He threw three interceptions — he threw only three interceptions in team drills all of training camp last year — and was off target on several other throws.

Coach Mike Munchak called it a bad night for the offense.

“If Jake throws well in practice or he doesn’t, there are a lot of things that go into a ball being picked off, like guys not being blocked at the line of scrimmage or when he’s trying to throw a ball that he’d be sacked in a game,” Munchak said. “That’s not something I’m really concerned about in practice. In general, the offense didn’t make enough plays. The defense did a great job in a lot of situations, and we needed that too.”

Safety Bernard Pollard had two of the interceptions, linebacker Zach Brown the other. Middle linebacker Moise Fokou let what should have been an interception bounce off his hands in the end zone.

The defense “won one today,” Pollard said. “I think Jake is a very good quarterback. He is very athletic and smart. As we continue to go in training camp we are all trying to knock off the rust and get ready to go for the regular season so we can win some games.”
