Three interesting things from Titans camp today.
First VY pulled up grabbing his hamstring when he was rolling out in 7 on 7 drills. Coach "Field Goal" Fisher said VY just "tweaked" his hamstring nothing serious but VY did not return to practice and it was the same hamstring he hurt last year. With the injuries to VY and Rob Bironas, the Titans offense has suffered injuries to its two most important players. Without VY and Bironas the Titans offense has lost the two players who scored 90% of their points last season. Scary.
Second, good news Eagles fans, Jevon Kearse's injury history has followed him to Tennessee. He has already missed two seperate practices. Titans defensive end Jevon Kearse missed practice for the second day in a row Wednesday, this time because of discomfort in his left knee.
Kearse missed Tuesday’s afternoon practice after his foot was stepped on in the morning practice.

Third, Byron "Fat Albert" Leftwich is getting a look-see from the Titans. According to Paul Kuharsky of ESPN.com;
" The Tennessee Titans are bringing in former Jacksonville quarterback Byron Leftwich for a physical and to throw to some receivers. The workout is designed to see if team officials want to add him to a "ready list" of players for emergencies.
Coach Jeff Fisher said the Titans have a number of receivers they are working out Thursday, and he's not going to ask quarterbacks Vince Young, Kerry Collins or Ingle Martin to throw to them.
That is part of the reason for bringing in Leftwich for a physical and a little work on the field.
"He's played in the league. He's been a starter in the league. He's won a lot of games. We're bringing him in just to work him out and see where he's at and even give him a physical and have him throw to some receivers that we're also trying to determine whether we put on our ready list or not," Fisher said.
Jacksonville cut Leftwich late in training camp a year ago, and he signed with Atlanta in September. He played in only three games because of an ankle injury and other problems."

If you see VY and Leftwich standing next to each other, one thing comes to mind: Fat Albert and Mushmouth.
