Lowry starting ahead of Lamont Thompson (1 Viewer)

Rookie running back Chris Henry stayed after the morning special teams practice Monday for a lesson from Fisher, Lowry and assistant special teams coach Marty Galbraith.

Henry has never worked as a gunner, but the Titans like the idea of him beating a double press to run down the field in pursuit of a punt returner.

"We are in need of somebody at that position with Calvin (Lowry) probably going to be our starting safety," Lowry said. "As we've watched how strong and fast Henry is, we thought he could do that so we're going to look at him. That was starting from scratch right there with the basics."

Henry said he played defense in high school and looks forward to the possibility of making some hits and tackles. He's also in the mix for the kick return job.

Cortland Finnegan is the other gunner and Michael Waddell has been good at the job in the past.

Was this bogus or is he (Lowry) really starting at Safety along with Hope?

So what is the deal with this guy? I haven't been hearing any buzz about him. When I check the boxscores I see he ends up with a handful of tackles.

Any Titans homers know any good info?

I think I missed out on Atari Bigby for this guy.

Season starts on Thursday...anything substantial to the rumblings of Lowry starting?

*ETA*

Nevermind...saw that they cut Lamont Thompson in favor of Lowry. Nice.
