Titans’ 2021 No. 1 draft pick Caleb Farley will miss several weeks with a hamstring injury

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee coach Brian Callahan said Thursday that Titans cornerback Caleb Farley will miss several weeks with a hamstring injury.

The 22nd overall pick in the 2021 draft left practice early over the weekend after feeling tightness in his hamstring. Farley left Wednesday’s practice after one-on-one drills and was not on the practice field Thursday.

It’s the latest setback for the cornerback, who has played in just 12 games, with two starts, in three seasons with the Titans.

Farley tore his ACL in his rookie season after missing the 2020 college season at Virginia Tech during the pandemic. He missed the entire 2023 season after back surgery, the third on his back dating back to his college days.

His father died last August in a gas explosion at Farley’s home in North Carolina.

The Titans open the preseason Saturday night at San Francisco, and Callahan will make his coaching debut with a handful of injured players. Callahan said most of the starters will play Saturday night, but not two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons and outside linebacker Harold Landry.
