He finishes the 2012 season with just two carries for 14 yards. Ringer has 486 career rushing yards. Jamie Harper will continue as Johnson's backup. Harper has 10 carries for 12 yards (1.2-yard average) this season. Safety Tracy Wilson was promoted from the Titans' practice squad.

Matt Hasselbeck has come to life for the Tennessee Titans. His success should be expected as he has led teams to the playoffs on multiple occasions.
