NASHVILLE – The Titans returned to the practice field on Wednesday at Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park to continue preparations for Sunday's game at the Los Angeles Chargers.
Here's a look at today's developments:

-Titans coach Brian Callahan said earlier on Wednesday the team planned to increase the reps for quarterback Will Levis this week.
Levis, who has missed the past three games with a right shoulder injury, is aiming to return to the starting lineup on Sunday against the Chargers.
Levis was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's session as the team kicked off the practice week.
"Will, his reps should uptick," Callahan said. "We're trying to get him back rolling and hopeful that's sooner than later here. And he'll probably take a little bit more to keep sharp. But I think Mason (Rudolph) still needs to be ready to play and he'll still take some reps but I'd like to increase Will's workload this week certainly."
