Tennessee defensive end Jevon Kearse is among the Titans' inactives against San Francisco, the fourth straight game he hasn't been on the active roster after being listed with a knee injury this week.

Both illustrate the weekly competition between youth and experience on the Titans defensive line, easily the most difficult position on the roster to earn and keep a starting job or playing time.

The Titans released receiver Chris Davis on Friday night, just three days after re-signing him to compete for return duties.

Linebackers Ryan Fowler and Rocky Boiman, two players with starting experience as members of the Tennessee Titans, were among those released by the team as part of its "cut-down day" maneuvers on Saturday.

The defense won practice for the second OTA session in a row Wednesday, and seems determined to finish the week strong before the Titans enjoy some down time.

The list of names reads like that of Who's Who in professional football. At least three of the four attending this year's one-day camp at Sweetwater Park near Thomson on Friday, July 10 have local ties to the area.
