The Tennessee Titans pulled out a 20-17 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday, but the victory came at a heavy price. Hours after news broke that starting center Lloyd Cushenberry would be lost for the season with an Achilles injury, a report has surfaced that the team will be without a second starter moving forward.
Safety Quandre Diggs left the game against the Patriots with a foot injury and now will be on the shelf for the remainder of the season after being diagnosed with a season-ending Lisfranc injury that will require surgery.

Diggs, who signed a one-year contract earlier in the offseason, now faces a 6-9 month recovery period and may have played his last game with the Titans. Diggs stepped into the defense and played a huge role in the unit’s success. His loss will be a big blow for the Titans moving forward.
Against the Patriots, safety Mike Brown stepped in and took over his spot next to Amani Hooker and played well. For the Titans to maintain their momentum, they will need Brown to build upon that performance.
The Titans will be back at practice on Wednesday to start preparations for their Week 10 battle with the Los Angeles Chargers.
