  "account": "Tennessee Titans linebacker Cedric Gray has passed concussion protocol and is fully ready for the team's Week 2 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on September 20 (noon, FOX). Gray was listed as questionable and did not participate in the Titans' Week 1 loss to the New York Jets after being involved in a utility terrain vehicle crash over Labor Day weekend. Since September 16, Gray has fully participated in practice for the Titans (0-1). Gray led the Titans in tackles this season with 160, ranking fifth in the NFL with his performance. The Titans' linebacking corps consists of Cedric Gray, rookie Anthony Hill Jr., veteran Cody Barton, third-year player James Williams Sr., and special teams star Dorian Mausi, who is currently on injured reserve. With Gray's return, the team might need to adjust their linebacker packages and rotations. Hill Jr. stood out against the Jets, tallying a league-leading 16 tackles, including two pass breakups. According to Titans head coach Mike Saleh, both Gray and Cody Barton are high-quality linebackers with distinct skill sets. Tyler Palmateer, covering high school sports for The Tennessean, reported this information.",
