NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans won't get receiver Corey Davis back this Sunday vs. Cleveland, but it won't be long.

Davis will miss his fifth consecutive game since re-injuring his hamstring in Week 2 against the Jaguars, but he confirmed Wednesday that he's "real close" to a return.

The Titans' Week 8 bye comes at a perfect time for Davis as he can use the extra week to get that hamstring 100 percent before attempting to play the following Sunday, Nov. 5 against Baltimore. Davis has a reasonable chance to return for the Ravens game if he doesn't have any setbacks. That's the biggest key here because this is an extended absence that occurred because he tweaked a previously injured hamstring.

The Baltimore game would place him seven weeks removed from the tweak. There's no guarantee he's fully recovered by then, but it does seem to be trending that way.

"I love this game. I want to get out there as soon as I can," Davis said. "It's frustrating not to be out there, but my job right now is to get healthy; then I'll be able to perform."

Davis has been warming up and stretching with the team, but he's yet to practice. He often catches passes on the JUG machine after practice.

When Davis returns, he should provide a big boost to the Titans' offense. He looked great in his first -- and only -- full NFL game, catching six catches for 69 yards against the Raiders.

Titans coach Mike Mularkey said Davis is ahead of safety Johnathan Cyprien in recovery from their respective hamstring injuries, even though Cyprien was injured first. Cyprien will also return after the bye week, but his status against the Ravens is a little more uncertain.
