Biggest takeaways from Titans’ final training camp practice

The Tennessee Titans’ 2022 training camp is now officially in the books after the team completed its 18th session on Thursday. After this week, the Titans will revert to the normal regular-season schedule for practices.

Tennessee will now look ahead to its preseason finale on Saturday night in Nashville against the Arizona Cardinals. From there, the Titans will cut the roster down to 53 on Tuesday, and then put together the practice squad the following day.

One of the biggest takeaways from Day 18 was rookie offensive tackle Nicholas Petit-Frere seeing a lot of reps at right tackle once again, while fellow tackle Dillon Radunz spent his time at guard.

We’ve now seen this for three straight practices, which has to make you wonder if the rookie has beaten out the second-year pro. Head coach Mike Vrabel did recently say Radunz moving inside was because of injuries, but it’s not like he would reveal the situation even if NPF had already won.

Now, the rest of the takeaways from the 18th and final camp practice.

Wyatt: “Speaking of being ready, veteran receiver Robert Woods said after today’s practice the knee he had ACL surgery on last year is no longer a thought. Woods has looked good in practices, and he said he’s ready to go.”

Logan Woodside gets more reps but...

Syndication: The Tennessean

Wyatt: “Woodside got more work on Thursday compared to recent sessions, and his best throw was a touchdown toss to running back Julius Chestnut.”

Inconsistent day from Malik Willis

George Walker IV-USA TODAY Sports

Wyatt: “Malik Willis had an up-and-down day. He was wide on back-to-back throws in a team period, and he was nearly picked off twice. Willis made some nice throws in a lower-speed period. The rookie QB said after practice he thinks he’s made strides in camp.”
