On Thursday, Mariota's snaps were pared back

The Tennessee Titans limited Marcus Mariota at practice Thursday and gave more work to backup Blaine Gabbert Womens Nick Martin Jersey , and coach Mike Vrabel says they want to evaluate which quarterback will give them the best chance against the Houston Texans.Mariota practiced fully Wednesday after an injured elbow knocked him out of Tennessee's 27-20 opening loss in Miami, and Vrabel said the quarterback should play Sunday in the home opener barring any setbacks.Vrabel said Mariota remains the starter."That could change," Vrabel said. "We'll see where things go here as we get closer to game day."Two-time Pro Bowl left tackle Taylor Lewan remained at home for a second straight day in the concussion protocol, and the Titans hope to re-evaluate him Friday. Right tackle Jack Conklin did not practice Thursday after being limited since being removed from the physically unable to perform list at the end of the preseason.Dennis Kelly, who started in Conklin's place in the opener, did not practice Thursday because of illness. Cornerback Kenneth Durden also was added to the injury report with a hamstring that limited him.The Titans got some good news with a pair of rookie linebackers practicing fully. Rookie linebacker Harold Landry was back after missing Wednesday's session, and Rashsan Evans practiced for a second straight day. Evans, the 22nd pick overall Youth Christian Covington Jersey , said he expects to play Sunday after missing the opener and all four preseason games.Linebacker Derrick Morgan also practiced fully after being limited.Wide receiver Corey Davis was limited a second straight day with a hamstring, but he told reporters before practice that his hamstring was just fine. In March 2016, quarterback Brock Osweiler found himself in the middle of a tug of war.The Broncos wanted to keep him as the starter, and the Texans wanted to give him their top job, sight unseen. In the end, Osweiler opted for a four-year, $72 million deal in Houston over a three-year, $48 million offer from the team that drafted him.And then, after agreeing to terms with the Texans, he went to meet his new coach for the first time.The situation highlighted one of the bizarre quirks of the free-agency rules. For all the time spent interacting with potential draft picks Authentic DeAndre Hopkins Jersey , teams often commit millions to a veteran free agent without ever meeting with him. In some cases, they don’t even know him.Osweiler didn’t know Texans coach Bill O’Brien. O’Brien didn’t know Osweiler. O’Brien relied heavily on Osweiler’s performance during a Sunday night game against the Patriots.But watching a guy from afar is a far cry from working with him, interacting with him, seeing him at his best, living with him at his worst.It ultimately didn’t work, with the last straw coming when Osweiler and O’Brien had some sort of altercation during halftime of a Week 17 game against the Titans, when O’Brien told Osweiler (who had been benched for Tom Savage) that Osweiler would finish the game because Savage had a concussion. The Texans, despite owing Osweiler $16 million fully guaranteed in 2017, became determined to get rid of him.To do that, the Texans could have eaten the money Womens Whitney Mercilus Jersey , or they could have traded him. To trade him, they had to give up a second-round pick to the Browns, which essentially bought the selection for $16 million.Osweiler thereafter failed to make the 53-man roster of a team that would go 0-16, he returned to Denver as a bottom-of-the-depth-chart guy, and then he reunited with former Broncos assistant Adam Gase in Miami. Tonight, Osweiler starts for the injured Ryan Tannehill.聽And the guys in the Houston locker room who may have not been big Brock Osweiler fans will get a chance to get after him.These facts alone make tonight’s game far more intriguing than the fact that both teams currently are above .500 after seven weeks. Even though everyone involved has downplayed it, there are surely hard feelings. Which could become hard hits from a potent front seven in Houston.
