Lions vs. Titans inactive players: Titans sitting some significant names including their starting QB

There weren’t any surprises or big names for the Detroit Lions on their inactive player list for the Week 8 visit from the Tennessee Titans. It’s a different story for Tennessee, however…

The only Lions player on the active roster who was ruled out due to injury was DE Josh Paschal, who was ruled out for an illness related to a post-cancer medical screening.

That leaves four healthy scratches, and all were widely expected:

TE Parker Hesse

OL Giovanni Manu

OL Colby Sorsdal

S Loren Strickland

Hesse was effectively replaced by practice squad elevation Shane Zylstra for the second week in a row.

The Titans inactive player list features several more prominent players, including their regular starting quarterback, Will Levis.
