Titans coach Brian Callahan calls out his offense after sloppy practice
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans and rookie quarterback Cam Ward turned in a sluggish performance Sunday, earning a profanity-laced tirade from head coach Brian Callahan as the session concluded. The No. 1 overall pick followed two solid practices with a rough showing Sunday in team drills. Ward completed just 4 of 13 passes in team drills and was off the mark on several throws. The Titans also had penalties and a play that would have been a sack as the defense pressured the young quarterback. Ward's final rep of the day was a pass that sailed far over the head of receiver Van Jefferson and out of bounds. That's when Callahan unleashed on the offense. The second-year Titans coach spoke before practice. After practice, Callahan stood near midfield talking with Ward, offensive coordinator Nick Holz and quarterbacks coach Bo Hardegree for about 20 minutes. Tennessee opens preseason play Saturday night at Tampa Bay with a joint practice on Thursday. Before practice, Callahan said some self-inflicted mistakes Saturday had him concerned because of the emphasis he has put on correcting those all offseason. 'The progress obviously isn't always going to be linear, we're going to have ups and downs,' Callahan said before practice. The Titans have NFL officials on hand to make clear when players commit penalties. Callahan said that's great to have that experience. The Titans called Callahan's outburst warranted because of a lack of focus and intensity on offense. 'He's not really an outburst-type of coach for the most part," left guard Peter Skoronski said. 'So I think so I think the practice kind of warranted it. It just felt kind of low and juice-less from an offensive end and lacking execution.' Skoronski said Sunday's session was disappointing and he could feel the frustration before Callahan went off. 'When he started yelling, I said, 'Oh there it is,'' Skoronski said. "We just didn't move the ball the way we needed to. I think it was warranted. We shouldn't need that to bring out the intensity. We shouldn't need the head coach to be like that. It should be player driven. We've got to be better and more on that.' ___ AP NFL:

Khalil Shakir injury update: How ankle sprain impacts Bills WR depth chart
The Buffalo Bills are going to be without one of their top receivers in the early weeks of training camp and the preseason. Coach Sean McDermott told reporters at Sunday's practice Khalil Shakir would be "week-to-week" after suffering a high-ankle sprain. Shakir was Buffalo's top receiver during the 2024 NFL season, leading the team in targets (100), catches (76) and receiving yards (821) while tying for second on the team with four touchdown receptions. The slot-man built a strong rapport with Josh Allen and is expected to once again be a key weapon for the reigning NFL MVP. Here's what to know about Shakir's injury and how it could impact Buffalo's wide receiver depth chart. Khalil Shakir injury update Shakir's injury occurred at Buffalo's Blue and Red practice Friday, per the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. Shakir suffered an apparent injury and walked off the field with trainers. He had his right leg evaluated on the bench before trainers accompanied him up the tunnel. He did not return to practice. The Bills were off on Saturday before returning to practice Sunday. At that point, McDermott announced Shakir would be "week-to-week" because of a high-ankle sprain. How long will Khalil Shakir be out? McDermott didn't provide a concrete timeline for Shakir's return, but CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz reports the 25-year-old receiver is expected to miss 4-5 weeks because of the injury. That makes his status for Buffalo's season opener against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, Sept. 7 worth monitoring. NFL POWER RANKINGS: As preseason nears, who are Eagles' main threats? Who is Khalil Shakir's backup? Shakir plays primarily in the slot – 498 of his 735 snaps (67.8%) last season came at the position – so either Curtis Samuel or free-agent signee Elijah Moore would figure to take over for Shakir in that role should he miss time. Samuel played in the slot on 43.1% of his snaps with the Bills last season while Moore did so on 54.6% of his snaps with the Cleveland Browns. Bills WR depth chart The Bills currently have 14 receivers on their depth chart. They carried just five on their 53-man roster to start last season. Below is a look at the projected pecking order among the top five receivers on Buffalo's roster: And here is a look at the other receivers battling for roster spots, listed alphabetically by last name:

Chet Holmgren meets Oklahoma legend Adrian Peterson
Enjoying his downtime, Chet Holmgren went on another side quest that involved a cross-sport interaction every Oklahoma sports fan loved. The calendar has flipped to August, which means the NBA is in its driest part of the year. Everybody around the league is on vacation for the next couple of months before the 2025-26 season starts. Holmgren traveled to the 2025 Panini VIP Party over the weekend. Panini America hosted the event. The company is known for selling sports trading cards, memorabilia and autographed merchandise. It includes about every collegiate and pro sports league you can imagine. At the event, athletes from across the globe attended. Holmgren took to social media to post some of the photos he had taken of players he grew up watching. One included Oklahoma and NFL legend Adrian Peterson. The future Hall-of-Famer is one of the greatest running backs ever. Peterson attended Oklahoma for three college seasons from 2004-06. He then spent nearly a decade with the Minnesota Vikings, where he carved out one of the greatest careers. He was a perennial Pro Bowl player and won the 2012 MVP award. Considering Holmgren grew up in Minnesota, it was a moment where the 23-year-old was likely starstruck. Both also have obvious ties to Oklahoma. In the seven-footer's case, he helped the Thunder win their first NBA championship this past June. Always fun to see the type of adventures NBA players go through when they have free time. So much of their lives is fixated on basketball. For Holmgren, his free time includes linking up with several other all-time athletes from various sports at a trading card company event.
