Titans owner stands behind 'future QB'

Aug 16, 2009

Then Titans owner Bud Adams showed he still has the back of his embattled quarterback, who turned in an impressive performance in a 27-20 preseason victory over the Buccaneers on Saturday night at LP Field.

Young helped erase what had been a sluggish night for the first-team offense. And in a visit to the locker room after the game, Adams said he still believes in the team's first-round pick from 2006.

Asked if there's any scenario in which Young is not on the roster this fall, Adams replied: "What do you mean not on the team? He's under contract. He is not going anywhere but right here. He is our future quarterback."

Adams said starting quarterback Kerry Collins "is getting some age on him, but he is still a great quarterback. But Vince is a young man and he can be a great quarterback before he gets through with his NFL career.''

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
