Limited by injury in 2024
Gray finished the 2024 season with 22 total tackles (13 solo) over seven games.
ANALYSIS
Gray was sidelined for the Titans' first 10 games of the season while nursing a nerve-related issue in his shoulder. Once active, the rookie operated primarily as a special-teams option, but he did have a massive Week 16 performance against the Colts, compiling 15 total tackles (nine solo). Gray figures to see his role on defense grow with Tennessee in 2025.

Massive tackle output in Week 16
Gray recorded 15 total tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Colts.
ANALYSIS
With injuries to Kenneth Murray (hamstring), Luke Gifford (concussion), Otis Reese (ankle), Jack Gibbens (ankle) and Chance Campbell (knee), Gray played a season-high 35 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss. The North Carolina product entered Week 16 with just three total tackles, but he led Tennessee's defense with a whopping 15 stops. With the Titans already eliminated from playoff contention, don't be surprised if Gray sees more defensive work in the team's final two games, especially after his impressive performance Sunday.

Nearing return
Gray (shoulder) was activated from injured reserve Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Gray was designated to return from IR on Oct. 7, opening his 21-day practice window. With that window set to close, Tennesse moved the North Carolina product to the 53-man roster and he is seemingly ready to make his NFL debut Sunday against the Patriots.

Not yet ready to return
Gray (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 8 game against New England.
ANALYSIS
Gray will need to wait at least one more week before making his NFL debut. The rookie linebacker has been on IR since the start of the campaign but was designated to return Oct. 7. Though he won't play against the Patriots on Sunday, Gray was able to log a trio of full practices this week. His 21-day practice window expires Monday, so Tennessee will need to either activate him then or rule him out for the remainder of the campaign.

Remains out for Tennessee
Gray (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills.
ANALYSIS
The fourth-round rookie is still waiting to make his NFL debut but has been practicing fully the last couple weeks as he works his way back from a nerve-related issue. The Titans have another week of practices before they need to activate Gray from injured reserve.

Not ready to return
Gray (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Nearing return
Gray (shoulder) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Gray now has his 21-day window opened and will be able to practice with the team. He's now eligible to return as soon as Sunday against the Colts, but he'll have to prove he's healthy enough to play and be moved to the 53-man roster beforehand.

Placed on IR with shoulder injury
Gray (shoulder) was placed on the Titans' reserve/injured list Thursday, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Titans' rookie fourth-round pick is dealing with a nerve-related issue in his shoulder. There's no set timeline for his return, but Gray will be forced to sit for at least the first four games of the season. With the Titans on a bye for Week 5, the earliest Gray can return would be for Week 6 against the Colts on Oct. 13.

Dealing with shoulder injury
Gray is tending to a nerve-related shoulder injury, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
