Friday Injury Report: Big Names Ruled Out

Left guard Rodger Saffold, linebacker Jadeveon Clowney among six who won't play; two others questionable.

The extra rest afforded the Tennessee Titans because their last game was on a Thursday night did not help.

Left guard Rodger Saffold, center Ben Jones, outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney, wide receiver Adam Humphries, tight end MyCole Pruitt, defensive tackle Larrell Murchison and cornerback Adoreé Jackson were unable to take part in any of this week’s practices.

All but Jones have been ruled out for Sunday’s game at Baltimore, a matchup of 6-3 teams in the thick of the AFC playoff race. Jones and cornerback Kareem Orr are questionable.

“Our job is to figure out each and every week who we have and how we’re going to adjust and play the game on all levels,” coach Mike Vrabel said Friday. “[There are] moving parts throughout the roster in the National Football League. That’s the challenge each and every week.”

No one for the Ravens has been ruled out.

Jamil Douglas has stepped in at left guard for parts of each of the last three games when Saffold has been hurt. Douglas played a season-high 36 snaps in the last game against Indianapolis.

The Titans already have played their last three games without left tackle Taylor Lewan, who sustained a season-ending knee injury last month.

Another issue arises if Jones is unable to go because Douglas is also the primary backup at center. The veterans in this care are veteran Daniel Munyer, who is currently on the practice squad, and undrafted rookie Aaron Brewer.

This is the second time in three games Clowney has missed the entire week of practice. The first was prior to Chicago, and he ultimately did not play in that one either.

“It’s a violent game,” Vrabel said. “It’s physical, and we have to find out who’s available. So, we’ll work through it and we’ll have the guys ready to go.”
