Getting comfortable with role Fulton has picked up his quality of play in recent practices, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact After playing 202 defensive snaps as a rookie in 2020, Fulton will be counted on to fill a bigger role in his second season. The Titans had significant turnover in the secondary this offseason, with Fulton now projecting to be the team's third corner. Though he may have gotten off to a slow start at training camp, Fulton has been making more plays on the ball in recent practices. If that strong play continues, he should solidify his role heading into the regular season.

Absent from injury report Fulton (undisclosed) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury reports, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact It's unclear why Fulton missed last week's loss to the Packers, but it doesn't appear that issue will keep him out of the lineup for the season finale against Houston. The rookie second-rounder hasn't played since Week 7. With Adoree' Jackson (knee) back in the swing of things and trade-acquisition Desmond King covering the slot, Fulton may not have a consistent role in Tennessee's defense moving forward.

Inactive Sunday night Fulton (undisclosed) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Impact The reason for Fulton's absence remains unclear, given that he wasn't listed on Tennessee's injury report heading into the weekend. In his stead, Adoree' Jackson and Desmond King will likely handle increased roles alongside top cornerback Malcolm Butler in Green Bay.

Unlikely to play Sunday Fulton (undisclosed) isn't expected to play Sunday against the Packers, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Impact Fulton wasn't present on Tennessee's injury report, and it's unclear why he's expected to be sidelined. Adoree' Jackson and Desmond King should operate alongside top cornerback Malcolm Butler on Sunday.

Activated from IR Fulton (knee) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Fulton has practiced for three weeks and should return to the lineup for this Sunday's game against the Lions. The rookie second-rounder could start at cornerback immediately, but that depends heavily on whether Adoree' Jackson (knee) plays.

Activation deadline looms Fulton (knee) will need to be activated by Tuesday to avoid being shut down for the year, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Tuesday marks three weeks since Fulton returned to practice, and if he isn't activated, he'll remain on IR for the rest of the year. Coach Mike Vrabel said the team will have to make a decision, hinting that the rookie's recovery hasn't gone as planned. Even if he is activated, Fulton may not be ready to face the Lions in Week 15.

Practice window opened Fulton (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday, opening the 21-day window to be activated, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Fulton has endured the minimum three-week stint on injured reserve and is eligible to play this Sunday against the Colts. The rookie second-round pick will be evaluated through the practice week before the team decides whether to activate him or not. Fulton could handle a decent workload upon return if Adoree' Jackson (knee) is inactive again.

Shifts to IR The Titans placed Fulton (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Impact Fulton was already ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Bengals, and he'll be required to miss two more outings before he can return from IR. The rookie underwent an MRI earlier in the week, but the team still hasn't revealed the nature of Fulton's injury. With Adoree' Jackson (knee) still on IR, Chris Jackson should handle an expanded role once again behind starters Johnathan Joseph and Malcolm Butler.

Unable to play Sunday Fulton (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Fulton underwent an MRI earlier this week to determine the severity of the knee injury he picked up in this past Sunday's loss to the Steelers, and the rookie second-rounder is expected to miss more than one game. His status is very questionable for Week 9 against the Bears as well. For the time being, Chris Jackson will operate in an expanded role unless Adoree' Jackson (knee) is activated from IR, in which case the latter will be an immediate starter.

Out with knee injury Fulton (knee) will be sidelined for a few weeks, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Impact The rookie second-round pick started the past two games but was limited to 37 defensive snaps against Pittsburgh due to the knee issue. Fulton was set to undergo an MRI, though the specifics of the diagnosis remain unclear. A decision has yet to be made on whether a trip to injured reserve is necessary, which would sideline him for at least three games.

First loss of season forces Titans to look at fixing issues

From their first loss of the season, the Tennessee Titans have gotten a needed wake-up call for the issues that must be fixed on defense and special teams

OCTOBER 26, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

MRI on tap Fulton will have an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of a knee injury he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Steelers, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Impact Fulton has started the last two games for the Titans, and the rookie second-rounder has been decent in coverage all season, allowing a 103.7 passer rating and one touchdown over five contests. The LSU product could miss time depending on what the MRI reveals. If he's indeed forced to miss time, it won't be a major knock on the defense, as Adoree' Jackson (knee) has been designated to return from IR and likely would've demoted Fulton to a situational role anyway.

OCTOBER 26, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with knee injury Fulton (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the Steelers, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Impact After being deemed inactive for Tennessee's Week 5 matchup against the Bills, Fulton retook the field last Sunday against Houston and garnered 79 percent of the defensive workload. With Fulton having suffered an in-game injury against Pittsburgh, Chris Jackson and Tye Smith will be in line for snaps at cornerback as long as the second-round rookie is unable to return to action.
