There is finally some good news for Titans star wide receiver Julio Jones. After struggling most of the season with a reoccurring hamstring injury, Jones is expected to be activated from the Injured Reserve today. This is according to NFL reporter Ian Rapoport, who tweeted that Jones is healthy and ready for the rest of the season.

Jones began his unfortunate series of injuries in Week 3. The Titans beat the Colts 25-16, but the star wide receiver missed the next two games due to a grade two hamstring strain.

The second injury didn't keep him off the playing field. He played in Week 7 and Week 8, before being put on the Injured Reserve for his hamstring strain. In the Titans' 12 games so far this season, Jones has only been able to play in six of them.
This would be a huge boost for the Titans, who are currently at the top of the AFC South. They are going into Week 14 on a two-game losing streak. Jones would be the perfect addition to the Titans' active roster ahead of their Sunday matchup against the Jaguars.
