Titans QB Young playing vs. Dolphins despite hamstring strain

Published: Dec 20, 2009 at 04:59 AM

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Quarterback Vince Young is active for the Tennessee Titans and set to start Sunday against the Miami Dolphins despite his mildly strained right hamstring.

Young pulled his hamstring during the second quarter of last week's victory over the St. Louis Rams. He practiced Friday and had been listed as questionable. He is 6-1 as a starter since returning to the lineup this season.

Kenny Britt will start a sixth consecutive game at wide receiver, although Justin Gage is active after coming back from broken bones in his lower back.

Center Jake Grove and right guard Donald Thomas are active for Miami. However, the Dolphins will start Joe Berger at center, with Nate Garner at right guard.
