The Tennessee Titans returned to the practice field on Monday after an off day on Sunday, and the session was the first padded practice of training camp.
Tennessee’s two top picks from this year’s NFL draft, wide receiver Treylon Burks and cornerback Roger McCreary, both continue to be among the team’s biggest standouts at training camp, but it was the Auburn product who stood out the most on Monday.
On the injury front, two Titans returned to practice in center Ben Jones and tight end Tommy Hudson, who was activated off the Physically Unable to Perform list on Monday.
On the flip side, cornerback Elijah Molden missed his second straight practice while dealing with an unspecified leg injury. His absence has opened the door for McCreary to get more reps, and he’s making the most of them.
Now, a look at all the happenings from Tennessee’s first padded practice of training camp on Monday.

McCreary has easily been one of the most consistent players at training camp. https://t.co/0BIQVpLdlv

Roger McCreary had at least 5 PBUs today. He pointed to staying consistent as a big reason why things are going well for him. Also said he relishes opportunities to go vs. Treylon Burks in 1 on 1s. pic.twitter.com/IL4VoCXJAr

Malik Willis threw pick-6 in redzone 7s. First INT of training camp. CB Shakur Brown with the nice play on the ball near front corner of the end zone, but targeted WR — Brandon Lewis — fell. Didn’t get great look at what happened, but turnover not all on Willis.

Dez Fitzpatrick looks pedestrian. In red zone he got what should have been a catch knocked away by Kenneth George, who’s been generally bad. And he was well covered on another play and just accepted his fate, letting QB eat it. #Titans
