The Titans will start QB Vince Young vs. Jacksonville on Sunday, The (Nashville) Tennessean reported Thursday, citing sources "familiar with the situation."

Young replaces Kerry Collins, who started the first six games of the season. Young has logged 31 career starts, but he has not started a regular-season game since Week One of the 2008 season.

Speculation that Young would replace Collins has increased in recent days after The Tennessean reported that Titans owner Bud Adams wanted Young to take over the starting job.

Young has completed 444-of-780 passes for 4,964 yards with 22 TDs and 33 interceptions. He has played in two games this season, but both appearances came with the games well out of hand.
