Al-Shaair (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
The 26-year-old linebacker went from not participating in Wednesday's practice to a full session Friday, and it now seems as if he's had enough time to move past his ankle issue. Al-Shaair has recorded 83 total tackles, including four tackles for loss and one sack through eight games this year.
Picks up injury designation
Published: 2023-11-08
Al-Shaair (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Al-Shaair was able to play 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in last Thursday's loss to the Steelers, so it's not clear when the 26-year-old picked up the injury. He'll work to get back on the field before the end of the week with a matchup against the Buccaneers on tap Sunday.

Al-Shaair recorded 10 tackles in Thursday's 20-16 loss to the Steelers.
Al-Shaair made double-digit tackles for the fourth consecutive game and also broke up a pass. He's on pace to easily surpass his career-high of 102 tackles in a season, and he remains a solid run-stopper in the middle of the Titans' offense.
Reaches double-digit tackles again
Published: 2023-10-30
Al-Shaair recorded 11 tackles and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Falcons.
Al-Shaair continued his excellent season, as he has three consecutive double-digit tackle performances. He also recovered a fumble midway through the second quarter to help set up a short field for the offense on a drive that resulted in a touchdown. Overall, Al-Shaair has 73 tackles in seven games and will easily surpass his previous best of 102 tackles in a season if he can remain healthy.

One sack in loss
Published: 2023-09-25
Al-Shaair had nine tackles (three solo) including one sack in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Browns.
Al-Shaair led Tennessee's linebacker corps in tackles Sunday and was tied with cornerback Kristian Fulton on the day. Al-Shaair played a pivotal role in limiting the Browns to just 78 rushing yards on 31 carries (2.5 YPC), but the Titans struggled to contain Deshaun Watson, who threw for 263 yards and two touchdowns on 81.8 percent passing. Al-Shaair and the Titans will look to get back on track against the Bengals in Week 4.
