NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Albert Haynesworth has served his time for swiping his cleated foot across Dallas center Andre Gurode's unprotected face. Now the Tennessee Titans must decide how well he took care of himself during his unprecedented suspension. Haynesworth was eligible to return to the Titans on Monday morning, and his agent said the lineman planned on reporting for work. That would allow the tackle to start trying to get back the respect he lost Oct. 1 with his angry outburst in a loss to Dallas.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Baltimore Ravens middle linebacker Ray Lewis missed his first game this season Sunday when he was deactivated against the Tennessee Titans with a back injury. The two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year didn't practice this week but had predicted he would be able to start. Coach Brian Billick had said Lewis would be a game-time decision.

| (MySportsbook) - Steve McNair hopes to make his return to the Music City a triumphant one, as the veteran quarterback leads the Baltimore Ravens onto LP Field in this Sunday's game with the Tennessee Titans. McNair was originally selected by the Houston Oilers in the first round of the 1995 draft, and remained with the franchise upon its move to Tennessee. He led the Titans to Super Bowl XXXIV, where the team came just one yard short of beating the St. Louis Rams. The McNair era in Tennessee came to an abrup |

Thanks to the NFL salary cap, McNair and his new team, the Baltimore Ravens, will play his old team Sunday, with the rookie who replaced him with the Tennessee Titans on the other side of the field. ``The perfect scenario would have been me coaching Vince for a couple of years, then letting him take over, but that wasn't the situation,'' McNair said. ``We have to live with it.

Washington had lost three in a row, including one to the lowly Tennessee Titans at home on Oct. 15. ``We have a little more confidence,'' quarterback Mark Brunell said. ``That helps in this league. Hopefully we can carry some of that into this game against Philly because they're a tough team.'' The Eagles are eager to take |

| No. 1 QB Byron Leftwich went down with an ankle injury. Garrard, who is in his fifth year out of East Carolina, has capitalized on the opportunity, and led the team to a road victory in Philadelphia on October 29 and a 37-7 thrashing of the visiting Tennessee Titans this past weekend. The latest victory allowed Jacksonville to gain the important 5-3 record at the halfway point of the season. Talk about some much-needed life after the embarrassing loss to the Texans.
