Brown (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

It's not unusual for Brown to have his practice reps managed, but his absence Wednesday makes the wideout's status worth monitoring as Sunday's season opener against the Cardinals approaches. A return to practice Thursday in any capacity would put Brown on track to play in Week 1, and if so, he'll be slated to start opposite newcomer Julio Jones (undisclosed), whose name doesn't appear on Tennessee's initial injury report.
