Clears concussion protocol Gray (concussion) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Impact Gray logged three straight practices as a full participant in Week 2. The starting weakside linebacker has been cleared by an independent neurologist to play in Sunday's contest and is all set to suit up opposite James Williams (elbow) or Owen Pappoe on the strong side.

Questionable for Week 2 Gray (concussion) was a full participant in Friday's practice but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.

Impact Gray logged back-to-back full practices to end the week, but in order to be available for Week 2, he'll need to clear an evaluation by an independent neurologist to exit out of the league's concussion protocol. James Williams (elbow) is also listed as questionable, so the Titans enter the weekend with Cody Barton, Owen Pappoe and rookie second-rounder Anthony Hill as the only healthy linebackers on the active roster. Gray's status for Sunday's contest may not be officially known until the Titans announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Logs another full practice Thursday Gray (concussion) was a full participant at practice Thursday.

Impact Gray is working his way back from a concussion he suffered on Sept. 7 during a UTV accident, and it seems he's close to clearing the league's five-step concussion protocol. If he receives clearance for game action from a neurologist in the next couple days, he should be available Sunday versus the Eagles.

Practices fully in concussion protocol Gray (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Gray suffered a concussion on Sept. 7 during a UTV accident. The linebacker was a full participant in Wednesday's session but has not yet cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. Gray will likely be cleared by an independent neurologist for Thursday or Friday's session, which would allow the 23-year-old to play in the Titans' Sunday game against the Eagles.

Should be ok for Week 2 Gray (concussion) is trending toward playing in Tennessee's Week 2 matchup with Philadelphia, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Wyatt was citing Tennessee coach Robert Saleh, who also said that Gray still needs to clear the concussion protocol. The linebacker got into a UTV accident on Labor Day weekend but avoided a serious injury. Gray broke out in 2025, recording 164 tackles (97 solo) and four pass breakups.

Won't play Week 1 Gray (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Jets, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Gray, coming off the heels of a career year in 2025, entered the league's concussion protocol after getting into a UTV accident this past weekend. He was a DNP throughout the week, so a return to practice during Week 2 prep would indicate that Gray is progressing through the league's protocol, though he won't be cleared to play in games until cleared to do so by an independent neurologist. Owen Pappoe and rookie second-rounder Anthony Hill are the top candidates to start alongside Cody Barton and James Williams at linebacker in Gray's absence.
