Titans WR Givens Questionable For Opener

POSTED: 7:27 pm EDT September 6, 2006

(Sports Network) - Tennessee Titans wide receiver David Givens did not practice on Wednesday and was listed as questionable for the team's opener against the New York Jets on Sunday.

Givens is struggling with a strained hamstring.

The veteran receiver played in 13 games last season and caught 59 passes for 738 yards and two touchdowns for the New England Patriots. He signed as a free agent in the offseason.

Throughout his career Givens has 158 catches for 2,214 yards and 12 scores in 53 games, all with the Patriots.

He has two Super Bowl championship rings (XXXVIII and XXXIX) and is the franchise leader with seven touchdowns in eight postseason games. Givens posted eight receptions for 88 yards in a pair of Super Bowls.

In other Titans news, head coach Jeff Fisher has still not named a starter at quarterback for the team's opener. Veteran Billy Volek, rookie Vince Young and the recently signed Kerry Collins are all options.

"That's a good question, " Fisher said after being asked who the starter would be. "If I had an answer for you I'd tell you. We may have to wait and see."
