Griffin (back) did not practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean reports. More on Griffin's status Friday, but as long as he practices in some capacity to close the week, we'd expect the safety to be available for Sunday's game against the Jets. We'll let you know if that assessment changes.

Griffin (shoulder) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Texans. It remains to be seen how close to 100 percent Griffin will be Sunday, but he'll give it a go. With 82 tackles, three sacks and two picks in 11 games to date, he's a viable IDP option when healthy.

Griffin (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, the Tennessean reports. Griffin returned to practice Friday after missing the previous two days, and indicated that there's no doubt he'll play Sunday. His IDP owners are still advised to verify his status in advance of Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff, however.

Griffin (shoulder) did not practice Thursday, the Tennessean reports. We'll check back on Griffin's status Friday, but in the event that he isn't able to play Sunday against the Texans, the report relays that coach Ken Whisenhunt indicated that the likes of Marqueston Huff and Brandon Ghee could see added snaps at safety this weekend.

Griffin (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday, the Tennessean reports. Griffin suffered a shoulder injury this past Sunday against the Eagles, but was able to return to the game, so as long he is able to practice later in the week, the productive safety should continue to tough it out Sunday against the Texans.

Griffin, who suffered a shoulder injury Sunday against the Eagles, was able to return to the game, Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean reports. Griffin, who recorded a team-high 12 tackles Sunday and has 82 tackles and three sacks overall, thus should be available to his IDP owners Sunday against the Texans.

Griffin suffered a shoulder injury Sunday against the Eagles. Griffin entered Sunday's game averaging seven tackles, with three sacks and two picks in 10 games, so his status is of import in IDP formats.

Griffin had an interception and a sack while adding a team-high 14 tackles in Tennessee's loss to Cleveland on Sunday. Griffin was all over the field Sunday, yet still couldn't prevent the Browns from staging an improbable fourth-quarter comeback. Griffin, who has 37 tackles and two interceptions through five games this season, will be counted on even more now that Bernard Pollard (Achilles) has been ruled out for the rest of the year.

The Nashville Tennessean doesn't expect FS Michael Griffin to be a salary-cap casualty. Cutting Griffin would create $6.2 million in real savings, and $8 million in cap space, but reporter Jim Wyatt believes his roster spot is "OK." Griffin missed the first two games of his career last season, but continued to play at an above-average level. Still only 29, Griffin should be back. He's signed through 2016.

Titans FS Michael Griffin underwent offseason foot and knee operations. The foot procedure was related to plantar fasciitis, while the knee surgery was just a simple injection. Griffin has just started to begin running again. In a football-related note, Griffin says the new coaching staff informed him he'll be playing closer to the line of scrimmage in 2014. That may mean free agent SS Bernard Pollard won't be back. Griffin carries an $8 million cap number.
