McNichols carried the ball four times for 17 yards in the Titans' opening game of the preseason against the Falcons.

EDGE Analysis

With Derrick Henry sidelined, McNichols was the second back on the field behind Darrynton Evans (knee). Most notable was that McNichols worked ahead of Brian Hill, who was listed with Evans as a co-second string back on the team's initial depth chart. That seemingly put McNichols in danger of losing his roster spot, though his usage in the game indicates he may not be entirely buried among the team's rushers.
