Julio Jones Trending Toward Activation, Can Be Effective Although Not 100%

Julio Jones, the veteran Titans receiver, is trending toward a return for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Jones missed the last three weeks with a hamstring strain he reaggravated against the Rams Week 9. Based on video of Jones at practice Thursday, his right hamstring is still not fully healed and he favored it when coming out of his break. 

Even though his burst is not fully back, Jones will be able to use his height and strength to get open. The Titans need help at wide receiver with A.J. Brown still on IR with a chest injury. Tennessee lost two straight games before its Week 13 bye.

Expect Jones to be activated off IR Saturday.
