By Teresa M. Walker, The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Titans reserve offensive lineman Troy Kropog has had arthroscopic surgery on his knee and will miss a couple weeks.

Coach Mike Munchak said Tuesday night that Kropog been playing with soreness in the knee since the first week of training camp before having the procedure. Kropog practiced Monday.

Kropog was a fourth-round pick out of Tulane in 2009 and has backed up both tackle positions and at guard. The Titans signed veteran Adam Terry on Monday and Pat McQuistan last week.

Receiver Lavelle Hawkins was excused for personal reasons. Linebacker Barrett Ruud (shoulder) and tight end Daniel Graham (ankle) were given the night off from practice due to soreness. Running back Javon Ringer did not practice for a second straight day with a sore hip but ran on the side.
