MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Tennessee Titans coach Mike Mularkey decided his starters would play one series Thursday night, and for the defense, that meant a single snap.The Titans forced and recovered a fumble on the games first play, setting up a touchdown as they beat Miami 21-10 in the Dolphins remodeled stadium.Tennessee defensive end DaQuan Jones jarred the ball loose from Jay Ajayi, and Rashad Johnson recovered. Three plays later, rookie Derrick Henry scored on a 1-yard run, and that was the last action for almost all Titans first-teamers.Im happy with the defense with a turnover on the first play, Mularkey said. Im happy with the offense scoring a touchdown off of the turnover. Those are things good teams do.The game gave South Floridians their first chance to check out the $500 million renovation of the Dolphins stadium, including a canopy and new video boards, as the project made its tight deadline.We had over 600 workers here, 24 hours a day, seven days a week for eight months, Dolphins president Tom Garfinkel said. Thats what it took to get it done.Any attendance boost will have to wait, however. The crowd totaled perhaps 20,000, meaning the stadium was less than one-third full.Quarterbacks Marcus Mariota and Ryan Tannehill didnt play. Most of the Dolphins starters were held out, and coaches on both teams used the game to evaluate players trying to make the roster.The Titans finished the exhibition season 3-1, and the Dolphins went 2-2. Both teams open the regular season Sept. 11, with Miami at Seattle, and Tennessee hosting Minnesota.ROOKIE WATCHDolphins: G Laremy Tunsil, their first-round pick and a likely starter, was nursing a minor foot injury and didnt play as a precaution. RB Kenyan Drake made his preseason debut and had a 33-yard reception.Titans: Heisman Trophy winner Henry carried seven times for 62 yards, including a 26-yard run.He has done a great job since he has stepped in, whether its pass protection or running the ball, Mariota said. Were happy to have him.Undrafted DE Mehdi Abdesmad had a tackle for a loss and a sack.POSITION BATTLESMiami: Ajayi had three carries for 13 yards and dropped a pass to go along with his fumble.I was a little disappointed he put the ball on the ground, coach Adam Gase said. I know its the fourth preseason game, and everybody kind of looks at this game and shrugs their shoulders. But any time you walk on that field, its important. To have that happen, I expect better from him.Ajayi may lose the starting job to Arian Foster, who didnt play. CB Tony Lippett, battling rookie Xavien Howard for a starting job, had a first-quarter interception. Howard made his preseason debut and had three tackles.Tennessee: RB Bishop Sankey, a 2014 second-round pick fighting for a roster spot, didnt get a carry until the second half and finished with 25 yards in eight carries. S Kevin Byard, a third-round pick making a bid for playing time, had an interception in the end zone. Alex Tanney, trying to make the team as the third QB, went 17 for 20 for 168 yards with two interceptions. Third-string running back Antonio Andrews scored on two short runs.INJURY UPDATEDolphins: Reserve LB Mike Hull left the game in the first half with a hip injury.Titans: Mularkey said his team had no injuries.QUOTABLEDolphins: DE Julius Warmsley, battling for a roster spot, said it will nerve-wracking awaiting the coaches decision. Its always a grind for people like me in my position, he said. You always have to be the hardest-working person out there, because if youre not, Joe Schmoe will come in and sweep your spot.Titans: I just wanted to come out there and show them I could play, Andrews said. I got my wind up and just rocked with it.WEATHERING THE STORMMariota said his family was OK while bracing for the second of two tropical storms this week in his native Hawaii.A crazy deal with those two hurricanes, he said.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- All by themselves on the massive track, the four U.S. women took their positions in Lane 2.Tianna Bartoletta kneeled into the blocks and waited for the starters pistol. It sounded and away she went -- alone -- in a first-of-its-kind Olympic relay race against the clock.The Americans won that contest Thursday night to earn their spot in the final eight of the 4x100.As is the case with so many relays the U.S. has run over the years, this was anything but routine.Our coach told us before we went out there, `Its just like practice, just the whole world will be watching, said English Gardner.Returning to the track 7 1/2 hours after they left, the team of Bartoletta, Allyson Felix, Gardner and Morolake Akinosun finished in a time of 41.77 seconds to bump China out of the last spot in the final.The rerun of their preliminary heat came about after Felix, running in the second position, got jostled by a Brazilian, stumbled and tried, unsuccessfully, to flip the baton ahead to Gardner.The stick fell, and after being disqualified, the Americans lodged a successful protest.But unlike some races, in which an additional runner could simply be added to the final, relays are limited to eight teams because there are only eight lanes that wrap completely around the track. So, the judges brought the Americans back to run in the same lane, in the same order, in what USA Track and Field said was the first rerun of its kind in Olympic history.Their only goal was to beat Chinas eighth-place time of 42.70 seconds, and that was no problem for a team that had two members -- Bartoletta and Felix -- who were on the team that set the world record (40.82 seconds) at the London Games in 2012.The exchanges were smooth, and a few moments after Akinosun crossed the line in a time that not only beat Chinas, but was the best that any team had run all day, the four runners huddled for a quick hug.Bartoletta peeled off to receive the gold medal she won in the long juump the night before.ddddddddddddThe others were off for rest and another quick turnaround.The final is Friday night, and the United States will run out of either Lane 1 or 8 -- the least-desirable lanes because the Americans, despite their top time, were not among the top three finishers in their heat.I dont know how much more I can take, said Felix, whose season has been filled with injuries, disappointments and, now, this. My bodys fine, my mind will be fine. Its different, just not the year I was expecting.Earlier, in more-conventional news, the U.S. mens team coasted through the preliminaries, winning its heat in 37.65 seconds. Jamaicas relay team also made it through, finishing second in its heat without Usain Bolt, who was resting up for the 200-meter final later in the evening.It puts Jamaica, and Bolt, in position for a third straight title in the sprint relay.The only pressure is to make sure we get the stick around, said Asafa Powell, the former world-record holder who ran the third leg.Its been more of a problem with the United States than the Jamaicans over the years.The U.S. women botched the exchange in both the 2004 and 2008 Olympics to give away potential medals in an event that was virtually made for the team with the deepest pool of sprinters. At last years world championships, a minor bobble in the less-technical 4x400 cost a precious split second that made the difference in a loss to Jamaica.The U.S. men have either been disqualified or failed to get the baton around the track eight times at Olympics or world championships since 1995.This years mens team was in the holding room when the women bobbled the stick. A jarring reminder.First thing I did is told the young guys, `We got this, veteran Tyson Gay said after running the mens third leg. Youve got to be positive. A lot of things happen out there.
