Tennessee faced one test Monday night and it will get a stiffer one Sunday.

It will be playing host to Green Bay in a game in which the Packers are expected to be even stronger in their secondary.

Packers Pro Bowl cornerback Al Harris lacerated his spleen during a Sept. 21 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. At the time, the feeling was that Harris could be lost for the season. But the bleeding in his spleen stopped quicker than doctors expected, and now Harris is expected to play Sunday against the unbeaten Titans.

If that weren’t bonus enough for Green Bay, the Packers also are expected to have back hard-hitting safety Atari Bigby, who has missed the past five games with a hamstring injury that was scheduled to sideline him four to six weeks. Bigby’s presence should be able to help Green Bay against Tennessee’s thunder-and-lightning combination of LenDale White and Chris Johnson.

So Green Bay will be as healthy as it has been in a while against the Titans. It makes an appealing matchup that much more appealing.
