Happy Sunday, Tennessee Titans fans, and to all those fans of other AFC South teams who have stumbled upon our latest divisional news roundup where we check in on the Titans’ biggest rivals, the Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans.
We are officially in the dead part of the NFL offseason, as teams are on break ahead of training camp in late July, which means there is absolutely nothing coming from teams with no practices, etc.
Thus, we are scraping the bottom of the barrel for news, which makes my job a heck of a lot harder. Nevertheless, I press on for the good of the people.
In Houston, the Texans have yet to name their starting signal-caller. In Indy, the Colts have injury concerns with three of their best players, two of which we cover in this roundup (the other is linebacker Shaquille Leonard).
Meanwhile, Jaguars fans got a blast from the past with the announced renaming of TIAA Bank Field, which is set to undergo renovations.
Check out those stories and more below in our latest AFC South news roundup.
