Vince Young is the emergency quarterback for the Tennessee Titans in New York on Sunday, but there doesn't seem to be a performance rationale for the move.
Young has been sick this week and missed practice on Friday, which led to Jeff Fisher deciding to put Patrick Ramsey on the active roster as Kerry Collins's backup quarterback. Eugene Amano, who was also sick this week, is active but will be replaced in the starting lineup at left guard by Leroy Harris, according to the Tennessean.
Tight end Bo Scaife is still inactive for the Titans as a result of the knee injury he suffered on opening night.
For the Jets, cornerbacks Lito Sheppard and Donald Strickland are inactive, as expected. Wide receiver David Clowney is also inactive for the home team. For the rest of the inactives, check out Rotoworld.

I wonder how much they are paying for three QBs that no one fears?
Question: If the Titans don't win the Super Bowl this year, are we going to hear stupid rumors all off-season about Brett Favre grabbing his banjo and heading to Nashville? Just shoot me.
Week 3 of the 3rd season for the 3rd pick of the 2006 draft, who is the 3rd string quarterback. When are the media going to start throwing the "bust' word around ?

No need to. Anyone with half an ounce of objectivity can already see that is the case.
VY is defenatly not feared in the NFL but if they used him some gimick offense plays they could use his legs to make a few plays a game.
i dont know what the Titans were thinking when they drafted him & if they were looking to replace Mcnair they were way off. Mcnair was a warrior & who was a leader, thats something clearly VY wont ever be.
VY had some great games at Texas but so has a lot of the QBs that played for Texas. QBs in college dont have to put the football in 6"- 12" windows to make plays but thats something you have to do at the next level. 2 things every successful collegite QB must have at the next level is accuracy & arm strength.
i would draw up a few gimick plays or try a position switch bcuz he wont ever be a starting QB in the NFL .
@itlalian - Bretts on a two year contract, i believe
