| Indianapolis, IN (MySportsbook) - Indianapolis kicker Adam Vinatieri has been upgraded to probable for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans with a right groin injury. Vinatieri has missed the last two games because of the injury. He started the week as questionable. Martin Gramatica, who connected on his lone field goal try and all seven extra point attempts while filling in for Vinatieri, was released on Wednesday. Vinatieri, one of the best clutch kickers in the history of the NFL, almost missed the |

| (MySportsbook) - The Indianapolis Colts will try for their third 5-0 start in four years when they welcome the winless Tennessee Titans to the RCA Dome this Sunday. The Colts jumped out to an amazing 13-0 start last season and would like to take another shot a perfect regular season, but last week Indy was only thinking about how it could get out of the Meadowlands with a win. Peyton Manning scored the game-winning touchdown on a quarterback sneak with 50 seconds left and the Colts held on for the 31-28 vict |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -The Tennessee Titans want back some of Albert Haynesworth's bonus money. And that might be just the start of the paybacks. Coach Jeff Fisher told a national radio show Thursday that Haynesworth - the defensive tackle suspended five games by the NFL for stomping on Dallas center Andre Gurode's face - may never be back in the building again. Team spokesman Robbie Bohren also said the Titans are investigating their options. ``We've moved on,'' Fisher said after practice Friday. ``I ha |

That's the spirit of the law.'' The last thing the Tennessee Titans (0-4) needed to worry about is the Colts (4-0) changing receivers near their sideline and having Peyton Manning snap the ball when the defense has more than 11 players on the field. The Titans already lost seven straight games overall, plus seven |

After consulting his family all week, Gurode said Thursday he's decided not to press charges agains the Tennessee Titans defensive tackle. But with their own fans still angry about Haynesworth's latest trouble, the Titans are investigating their options and trying to decide if they even want him around anymore, according to spokesman Robbie Bohren.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -Peyton Manning owns two MVP awards, 84 career victories and is the leader of an unbeaten team. Vince Young is making his second career start and is trying to rescue the Tennessee Titans from a seven-game losing streak. Manning can empathize. Not so long ago, he was dealing with the rookie mistakes, frustrating losses and constant questions about succeeding in Indianapolis. His advice to Young: Hang in there, kid. ``The best way to learn in this league is to be out there on the fiel |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -The winless Tennessee Titans held a players-only meeting Wednesday, encouraged each other and pledged to recommit themselves. The Titans need all the cooperation they can muster to survive the next five games without tackle Albert Haynesworth, arguably their second-best defensive player. It won't be easy. The Titans (0-4) ranked last in the NFL in yards rushing with the physical 6-foot-6, 320-pound Haynesworth. Now they must face the league's highest-scoring offense in Peyton Man |

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -Justin Hartwig saw the replay of Albert Haynesworth kicking a player in the head and wasn't surprised. For good reason: The Carolina Panthers' center was a victim of Haynesworth's temper three years ago. The Tennessee Titans defensive tackle was suspended five games - the longest suspension for an on-field incident in NFL history - for twice stomping on the head of Dallas center Andre Gurode on Sunday Gurode, who lost his helmet, required 30 stitches to repair gashes on his face.< |
