NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Marcus Mariota says he probably wouldnt throw the ball again in the same situation, not after seeing how close his pass came to being intercepted.Luckily, Tennessee rookie Tajae Sharpes focus never wavered.Instead, Sharpe caught the pass that Oakland cornerback Sean Smith just missed and finished off a 60-yard run in what Titans coach Mike Mularkey called a very impressive play.He doesnt know if the guys cutting in front of him, or hes about to take his head off, Mularkey said.So to sit there and concentrate on the football coming to you when you probably dont have good vision on it is very impressive on his part.That kind of attention to detail is what has turned a fifth-round draft pick out of Massachusetts into a receiver likely to start his first NFL game Sept. 11 when the Titans host the Minnesota Vikings in their season opener.Not bad for a wide receiver whose small hands helped drop him further than Sharpe thought he should be drafted.Leading the Football Bowl Subdivision with 111 catches last season couldnt help the 6-foot-2, 194-pound Sharpe improve his draft status past 104th overall despite playing at the same school that produced Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz.I kind of expected to drop a little bit coming from a smaller school, Sharpe said of a program that moved up to FBS and didnt become bowl eligible until 2013.Im not going to agree with it myself. I feel like I deserve to be up there with the rest of the top receivers. But anybody has their own opinions and decisions to be made.Sharpe convinced the Titans new general manager Jon Robinson with his production and precise route-running.Sharpe started 43 of 47 games in college and is UMass all-time leading receiver with 277 catches and 3,486 yards. As a senior, he had 1,319 yards receiving.Once in Tennessee, Sharpe has worked his way up the depth chart quickly. He has been with the first-team offense since the end of the offseason program, a spot he hasnt budged from since.The native of Piscataway, New Jersey, now is poised to start along with veteran Rishard Matthews.Im just happy I wound up here being a Titan, Sharpe said. I wouldnt rather be anywhere else. I ended up in a place I was supposed to be. Im just thankful for this opportunity and just go out and make the most of it.The Titans went looking to give Mariota, the No. 2 pick overall in 2015, more help at wide receiver this offseason after tight end Delanie Walker led the team in both receptions (94) and yards receiving (1,088).That helped Walker get to the Pro Bowl, but no wide receiver had more than 36 catches. Rookie Dorial Green-Beckham led the group with 549 yards receiving.Robinson addressed the receiver group by signing Matthews from Miami in March, drafting Sharpe and then signing veteran Andre Johnson at the start of training camp. Those additions allowed Tennessee to trade Green-Beckham two weeks ago for a backup offensive lineman.Through three preseason games, Sharpe has nine catches for 163 yards, averaging 18.1 yards per reception, to lead Tennessee (2-1) with the exhibition finale Thursday night at Miami (2-1).From the moment hes got here, hes been incredible, Mariota said. I mean hes stepped on the field, he knows what he has to do. He knows his routes, and he consistently finds separation.It makes it easier on us quarterbacks because hes a pretty wide target in terms of just his ability to catch a football and his ability to get open. Expectations with us are high for him, and we look forward to the season.Game notes WR Kendall Wright was sent home Tuesday with a high fever, so Mularkey said no update on the receivers left hamstring was available. Wright will stay in Nashville for treatment rather than go to Miami for the final preseason game. ... The Titans waived RB David Cobb, a fifth-round pick out of Minnesota in 2015, and WR Jarrod West to reach the 75-man roster limit.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Teresa M.

PAUL, Minn. http://www.authenticfootballshopbears.com/c-63-bears-jordan-howard-jersey.aspx .com) - The Calgary Flames aim to bounce back from their first regulation home loss of the campaign on Friday night when they host a Detroit Red Wings club that they swept in three meetings a season ago. http://www.authenticfootballshopbears.com/c-79-bears-kendall-wright-jersey.aspx .Y. -- Sabres defenceman Tyler Myers had no intention of changing his hard-hitting style before taking part in a disciplinary hearing for his illegal check to New Jersey forward Dainius Zubrus head. http://www.authenticfootballshopbears.com/c-76-bears-marcus-cooper-jersey.aspx .Y. -- Leading 3-0 with only 11:25 left, the Colorado Avalanche committed a seemingly meaningless penalty to give the New York Islanders a power play. Adam Shaheen Jersey .ca. Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not. Sydney Roosters coach Trent Robinson has hinted at moves to extend former bad boy Mitchell Pearces contract at the club.Pearces place at Bondi appeared on shaky ground after his drunken Australia Day atrocities resulted in an eight-game ban and contributed to the Roosters poor start to the season.But the halfback has since regained the form that entrenched him in the NSW State of Origin team for the last eight years, leading the Tricolours to three wins in their past four games.Robinson has been so impressed with the former captains turnaround that he recently opened dialogue with the 27-year-old to ensure he remains a key piece of the roster moving forward.Mitchell and I have discussed that. Mitchells always been the future at the Roosters, as long as the off-field matches the on-field, Robinson said on Friday.Since he came back from (rehab in) Thailand, hes had a great year. Its a credit to himself first of all and then the people around him.ddddddddddddDespite playing just 10 games this year, Pearce leads the team in try assists (15) and line break assists (14), and won the past three games he has played.Following James Maloneys move to Cronulla last summer, Robinson said Pearces experience was key to the emergence of young playmakers Connor Watson and Ryan Matterson.Luke Keary, 24, is also set to arrive from South Sydney at the end of the year.Its been difficult this year (but) really rewarding lately. It shows the importance of Mitchell here, Robinson said.The 14th-placed Roosters, who have defeated finals contenders Brisbane and North Queensland, and knocked St George Illawarra from contention over the past month, face Cronulla on Saturday.
