The Tennessee Titans appear set to have their top two wide receivers for Sunday's matchup against the 3-3 Kansas City Chiefs.
As Josh Alper noted for Pro Football Talk, Tennessee wide receiver A.J. Brown was back on the practice field Friday after he missed the previous two days due to a nasty bout with food poisoning. Brown actually dealt with stomach issues during this past Monday's thrilling 34-31 win over the Buffalo Bills but still managed to record seven catches for 91 yards in the victory:

My body is rejecting any food I eat . This shii ain’t no joke

Meanwhile, Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said earlier in the week that fellow receiver Julio Jones was "day-to-day" because of the hamstring issue he reaggravated on Monday. However, Jones sounded like a man who was playing this weekend when speaking with reporters Friday:
