NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee Titans coach Mike Vrabel said he will have assistant head coach/defensive line coach Terrell Williams handle the head coach duties in the preseason opener against the Chicago Bears on Saturday.
"I think this is a great opportunity for him and for us and for everybody involved," Vrabel said on Monday. "Big T (Williams) will handle that and Clint McMillan, (defensive assistant) will handle the defensive line. That will start on Friday."
Williams will handle in-game decisions. But Vrabel will still be with the team on the sideline. Vrabel complimented Williams for his ability to communicate with players on the team beyond his position group.
