Titans running back DeMarco Murray returned to practice Thursday after one day off, a strong sign he’ll play Sunday when the Titans host the Packers.
Titans Coach Mike Mularkey told reporters he anticipates that Murray will play. Murray has been dealing with a toe injury, and it seems like the maintenance and rest day he got Wednesday will become standard over the rest of the season.
Murray is second in the NFL with 807 rushing yards and tied for fifth with seven rushing touchdowns.
Titans backup running back Derrick Henry said he’ll practice Friday in a limited fashion. Mularkey said Henry is better than the team expected he would be, so it sounds like the team will wait until after practice Friday -- or maybe even Sunday morning -- before deciding if Henry can play Sunday despite his calf strain.
Antonio Andrews was the No. 2 back last week with Henry out. The Titans promoted David Fluellen to the active roster earlier this week with Murray and Henry dealing with their injury issues.
