As the 2025 NFL preseason rolls into the second week, the first matchup on Friday night will feature the Tennessee Titans taking on the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia.

The Falcons are coming into this game after a week 1 matchup against the mighty Detroit Lions. Neither starting quarterback Michael Penix Jr. nor veteran Kirk Cousins took the field in the game against the Lions, so the majority of the snaps under center fell to Easton Stick, followed by Emory Jones. While both players looked good, Stick, in particular, completed 15 of 18 passes for 149 yards and a touchdown.

Although he played only a few series, Ward was able to connect on 5 of 8 passes for 67 yards. Ward’s chemistry with Calvin Ridley looked good, with one play going for 27 yards.

Both teams lost their week 1 preseason games, although in contrasting styles. The Falcons went down 17-10 against the Lions, while the Bucs trounced the Titans 29-7.

Tennessee’s starters are once again slated to play in the game. They will, however, be restricted probably to just a couple of series before the backups take over. As per the reports from the joint practice sessions, the Falcons came out on top on Tuesday, but the Titans won on Wednesday.

Match Prediction: Titans win 24-20
