Winners and losers for Tennessee Titans, New England Patriots joint practice
By Will Lomas
Winner: EDGEs young and not so young
Take your pick on who you want to hear about. Cameron Wake had the best day so let’s start with him:
He’s been practicing for two hours in 90+ degree heat and Cam Wake is neither breathing hard nor sweating. Insane.

Cam Wake just shot into the backfield, forced Brady to hurry his throw. Adoree Jackson broke on the deep out and knocked it down. Good play.

Second year, breakout candidate Harold Landry wasn’t far behind him:
Harold Landry just pulled up on a would-be sack of Brady, and #Titans get pressure on next snap too.

And if you squint hard enough you can find Sharif Finch making plays like he always does when he is on the field:
(2) #Patriots offense 1st team 11-on-11

1. Brady 12 yards to Berrios
2. Adoree breakup out route
3. Brady sack by Landry
4. Brady 10 yard pass to Meyers
5. Brady w/ a perfect back shoulder throw to Harris 15+
6. Byard w/ pressure, Brady incomplete
7. Blown up screen by Finch
The Titans have a nice pair of young EDGEs in Harold Landry and Sharif Finch. Clearly veteran Cameron Wake isn’t eager to get outdone by either of them and is well rested enough to break out these dominant plays.
Going forward it will be interesting to monitor how the Titans use them, but for now you have to get more and more excited every day that these guys could be much better than what the rest of the league (and some in the Nashville media) think.
