The Tennessee Titans opened their training camp up to the media for the first time this year on Friday, and we got a look at players going through drills, among other things, in what was the first full-squad practice of the year.
Long story short: it feels so good to be watching real live football again, even if it’s just practice without pads. By the way, padded practices begin on August 17.
Before we get to the video, here’s a look at news about some of the players who didn’t participate or left practice early, as well as notes on other things that went down on Friday.

One of the precautions the Titans are taking due to COVID-19 is to give each running back their own ball for drills.
As is tradition, the Titans started off practice by playing Sir Charles Jones’ “Friday” — and helmet on a stick is back!

Here’s a look at some of the Titans’ rookies putting work in. One thing of note here is the progress 2020 seventh-round pick Cole McDonald has been making with his throwing motion.
Now here’s a look at some of the veterans in action, including running back Derrick Henry and quarterback Ryan Tannehill, as well as some of the team’s most notable defenders.
Last week, the Board of Regents approved an emergency regulation that makes adjustments to the Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) for teachers and principals as the State continues its transition to higher learning standards. The emergency regulation removes any consequences for teachers' and principals' evaluations related to the grades 3-8 English Language Arts (ELA) and Math State Assessments and the State-provided growth score on Regents exams until the start of the 2019-2020 school year.

The emergency regulations approved by the Board prohibit the use of results from the grades 3-8 ELA and math State assessments and State-provided growth scores for grades 9-12 principals in evaluating the performance of individual teachers or principals for the next four school years. During this time, districts and BOCES will continue to implement their approved APPR plans and provide teachers and principals with their HEDI scores and ratings calculated pursuant to that approved plan. However, districts and BOCES will also provide teachers and principals with 'transition scores' and HEDI ratings that exclude the results of State assessments in grades 3-8 ELA or math (including where State-provided growth scores are used) or on State-provided growth scores on Regents exams.

The transition scores and subsequent ratings will be determined based on the remaining subcomponents of the APPR that are not based on the grades 3-8 ELA or Math State assessments and/or a State-provided growth score on Regents examinations. During the transition period, only the transition score and rating will be used for purposes of evaluation, and for purposes of employment decisions, including tenure determinations and for teacher and principal improvement plans. State-provided growth scores will continue to be computed for advisory purposes and overall HEDI ratings will continue to be provided to teachers and principals. Additional information will be forthcoming.
