Welcome to Locked on Titans, your daily source for all Titans news and information with your host, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com, Greg Arias and former Tennessee Titans Pro Bowl left tackle Brad Hopkins. It is an abbreviated Monday edition of Locked on Titans today as the Titans return to St. Thomas Sports Park after having the bye week on Sunday and, of course, being off the majority of last week to rest and recuperate and get ready for this final stretch drive of four games left in this 2016 NFL season.

Of course, no news is good news if you're the Titans coming back to work today. No injuries, nothing to report new for Titans fans, only the fact that the team gets back to work and is ready to go on a player front. However, there is good news around the NFLfl of course if you are the titans you spent sunday off on the bye week and returned to work tied for first place in the afc south by virtue of the texans loss to green bay yesterday in green bay so the titans now tied for first it's something we haven't said or talked about much in recent years. This late in the season, the Titans being tied for first place in the division.

But that is certainly where they find themselves today. Though making the playoffs is still a bit of an uphill climb, obviously, because the Texans remain 3-0 unbeaten in AFC South play. And the Colts, who are 5-6 and play on Monday night tonight. Excuse me, the Texans are 6-6 rather. The Colts are 5-6 and play on Monday night tonight. Excuse me, the Texans are 6-6 rather. The Colts are 5-6. They play tonight. Should they win this game against the Jets,

they would then be 6-6, but both the Texans and the Colts hold tiebreakers over the Titans by virtue of the Texans being 3-0 inside the division and the Colts 2-0 against the Titans having won both matchups head-to-head. So the Titans, even though they are tied for first in the division with Houston at the moment, technically they still trail and have an uphill climb if they're going to get to the playoffs. That's it for today. Brad and Terry will return this week as we will come back on Tuesday with a full edition of Locked on Titans.

Until then, enjoy the rest of your Monday and we will talk to you on Tuesday where we will have Mike Malarkey's Monday press conference to fill you in on the things that he had to say and of course get a chance to talk to some players as the Titans return to the facility this afternoon. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Have a great day. You've been listening to Locked

on Titans.
