Titans injury report: Dillon Radunz out, Amani Hooker questionable

The Tennessee Titans released their final injury report and see multiple starters led by guard Dillon Radunz out for Week 17.

The Tennessee Titans finished up their work on the field in preparation for their Week 17 battle with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Friday and have a lot of injury questions heading into the weekend.

The biggest blow could be the loss of Dillon Radunz. The veteran offensive lineman has missed practice all week with a shoulder injury and is officially out. This will definitely impact a unit that has struggled throughout the 2024 campaign and has seen their depth pushed to the limit.

Kicker Nick Folk and linebacker Otis Reese are also listed as out heading into the weekend. Wide receiver Colton Dowell is also out, but he has not been activated from the injury list and would be ineligible.

The final injury report and game statuses for the Titans and Jaguars are below.

Titans’ injury report: L’Jarius Sneed out, Dillon Radunz questionable vs Chargers

The Tennessee Titans released their final injury report for Week 10 and are close to having a complete roster against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Tennessee Titans will travel west to Sofi Stadium to play the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. 

Coming off an overtime victory, the Titans are getting healthier, and multiple starters could return to the sideline against the Chargers. 

Cornerback L’Jarius Sneed (quad) continues to be out and will be sidelined again this week. He did not practice at all during the week, and his status moving forward is unknown. 

Starting guard Dillon Radunz (toe) and reserve running back Julius Chestnut (foot) were limited and are questionable. No other player has an injury designation heading into the weekend.

Titans’ Will Levis, Tyjae Spears practice in full, L’Jarius Sneed sits again

The Titans’ injury report after Thursday’s practice ahead of their Week 10 matchup against the Chargers on Sunday.

The Tennessee Titans have seen their fair share of injuries this season. The offensive line is in a shambles after losing Lloyd Cushenberry for the season. With Dillon Radunz also injured, it moved Daniel Brunskill to guard and Corey Levin became the center. Safety Quandre Diggs is also gone for the season, and for the umpteenth straight practice, L’Jarius Sneed continues to nurse a quad injury.

This week, though, the Titans are seeing progress with some of the nagging injuries players have been playing through. Will Levis was a full participant on Thursday, T’Vondre Sweat is not on the injury report, and Tyjae Spears practiced in full. There were a couple of new injuries, but only two players sat out of Thursday’s practice.

The Titans’ Thursday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: CB L’Jarius Sneed (quad), RB Tony Pollard (foot)

Limited participants: WR Tyler Boyd (shoulder), S Amani Hooker (groin), DT Jeffery Simmons (hamstring), G Dillon Radunz (foot), RB Julius Chestnut (foot), TE Nick Vannett (neck)

Full participant: WR Calvin Ridley (shoulder), QB Will Levis (shoulder), S Mike Edwards (NIR-Rest), RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring), CB Tre Avery (hamstring)

Titans injury report: L’Jarius Sneed sits out again

The Tennessee Titans returned to the practice field Wednesday and released their first injury report for the week.

The Tennessee Titans are banged up as they prepare to take the field Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10 action. Prior to hitting the field to start preparations for this one, the Titans made a couple of injury-related roster moves. 

The team officially placed center Lloyd Cushenberry (Achilles) and safety Quandre Diggs (foot) on injured reserve, likely ending their seasons. To fill one of the roster spots, the Titans signed veteran safety Mike Edwards, who was in Tennessee Wednesday for a physical. 


Once they hit the field, eyes were on the players who sat out the Week 9 victory due to injury to see if there was any chance of a return to action. Unfortunately, cornerback L’Jarius Sneed continued to be sidelined with his quad injury. He was joined on the sideline by defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons.

Quarterback Will Levis, guard Dillon Radunz, and running back Tony Pollard led the group of eight players that were limited, which included newly acquired safety Mike Edwards. 

Cornerback Tre Avery returned as a full participant with his hamstring injury. 

The Titans’ Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: CB L’Jarius Sneed (quad), Jeffery Simmons (NIR/rest)

Limited Participant: RB Tony Pollard (foot), WR Tyler Boyd (shoulder), WR Calvin Ridley (NIR/rest), S Armani Hooker (groin), G Dillon Radunz (foot), QB Will Levis (shoulder), RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring), S Mike Edwards (NIR/rest)

Full participants: CB Tre Avery (hamstring)

Titans’ L’Jarius Sneed out, Tony Pollard questionable vs Patriots

The Tennessee Titans released their final injury report for Week 9 and see multiple starters questionable for the meeting with the New England Patriots.

The Tennessee Titans will return home to Nissan Stadium in Nashville on Sunday to take on the New England Patriots in Week 9 action. 

Coming off an embarrassing loss against the Lions, the Titans are banged up and could see multiple starters on the sideline against the Lions. 

Cornerback L’Jarius Sneed (quad) is out this week. He will be joined on the sidelines by guard Andrew Rupcich (tricep), who will likely be placed on injured reserve prior to kickoff. The Titans had hoped to have running back Tyjae Spears back this week, but he will also miss another game with his hamstring injury. 

Quarterback Will Levis will headline the list of questionable players for this week and there are a lot of them. Starters Tyler Boyd, Amani Hooker, Tony Pollard, Dillon Radunz, T’Vondre Sweat and reserve Tre Avery are all battling injury and may not go against the Patriots. Full injury reports for both the Titans and Patriots can be found below.

Tennessee Titans

Out: CB L’Jarius Sneed (quad), OG Andrew Rupcich (tricep), RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring)

Doubtful: None

Titans’ injury report: Six starters miss practice

The Tennessee Titans returned to the practice field Thursday and saw six starters sidelined with injury.

The Tennessee Titans were back on the practice field on Thursday and again have a huge list of walking wounded as they prepare for their Week 9 battle with the New England Patriots. 

In all, six starters sat out practice due to injury and their availability for the week is unknown. Tyler Boyd, Amani Hooker, Tony Pollard, Dillon Radunz, L’Jarius Sneed, and T’Vondre Sweat all missed practice for a second day. They were joined by reserves Tyjae Spears, Andrew Rupcich, and Tre Avery on the sidelines. 

Quarterback was again a limited participant, but was seen throwing for a second straight practice. This is a positive step after not attempting a pass last week. 

Calvin Ridley and Jeffery Simmons both returned to practice in full. 

The Titans’ Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: CB L’Jarius Sneed (quad), RB Tony Pollard (foot), WR Tyler Boyd (shoulder), S Amani Hooker (groin), G Dillon Radunz (foot), NT T’Vondre Sweat (hip), OL Andrew Rupcich (triceps), CB Tre Avery (hamstring), RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring)

Limited participants: QB Will Levis (shoulder)

Full participant: WR Calvin Ridley (shoulder), DT Jeffery Simmons (NIR/rest)

Titans’ Latham a bright spot along the struggling line

The Tennessee Titans offensive line has been bad. But, rookie JC Latham is looking more like a franchise left tackle every game.

Lost in all the outrage at the dreadful performance of the Tennessee Titans offensive line, rookie LT JC Latham is by far playing like their best lineman. After three weeks, the rookie first-round draft choice appeared to transition seamlessly to the left side of the offense. 

Compared to other rookies, Latham stands at the top of the tackle class in Week 3, allowing only one pressure in 44 dropbacks. This 2.3 percent rating placed him squarely on the 33rd Teams’ Notable Rookie Performance list. 

A right tackle throughout his college career at Alabama, there was concern during the preseason about his ability to switch sides. To this point, he has not only held up well but also excelled at protecting QB Will Levis’ blindside. 

Unfortunately, the rest of the offensive line has not held up so well. This was especially the case against the Green Bay Packers, where only RG Dillon Radunz (75.1) graded out positively in the PFF positional breakdown for pass protection. Latham finished with an outstanding 81.8 grade and appeared to be on his way to developing into the franchise left tackle the Titans envisioned when selecting him number seven overall.

With this unit full of new faces, the team knew it would be a work in progress. However, the play has not matched preseason optimism, and the unit is driving an underperforming offense. If the coaching staff doesn’t get this unit right, this will be a long season for the Titans offense, no matter who the quarterback is.

Titans injury report: Peter Skoronski limited

The Tennessee Titans added guard Peter Skoronski to the injury report Thursday.

One day after seeing every player take part in practice, the Titans were forced to make an addition to the injury report. Left guard Peter Skoronski was added to the report as a limited participant with a neck injury.

Tennessee’s 2023 first-round selection, Skoronski, is a huge part of the rebuilt offensive line, and any type of limitation would have a ripple effect. This is a situation to monitor as the week continues. 

Safety Jamal Adams continues to progress toward a Week 2 return to action, just in time for Tennessee’s game against the team that drafted him No. 6 overall in 2017.

The Titans’ Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: N/A

Limited participant: Peter Skoronski (neck)

Full participant: Jamal Adams (hip), Otis Reese (Concussion), Dillon Radunz (rib)

Titans injury report: Jamal Adams returns to practice

The Tennessee Titans released their first injury report for Week 2 and see a veteran safety return to the field.

The Tennessee Titans returned to the practice field to start preparing for their Week 2 match-up against the New York Jets and it provided an opportunity to see where several of the team’s injured players are at.

All eyes were on safety Jamal Adams, who was inactive against the Bears and has yet to make his regular-season debut with the Titans. Adams returned to practice on Wednesday and looks to make an impact this week. 

Things appear to be trending in the right direction, as wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie were removed from the injury report and fully participated in practice. The Titans’ Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: N/A

Limited participant: N/A

Full participant: Jamal Adams (hip), Otis Reese (Concussion), Dillon Radunz (rib)

Titans climb slightly in latest ESPN power rankings

From the 2024 NFL draft until now, the Tennessee Titans have actually seen a slight bump in the ESPN power rankings.

Following the 2024 NFL draft, ESPN released an updated version of their power rankings and had the Tennessee Titans checked in at No. 26 overall.

Four months later, Tennessee’s stock has improved. Slightly.

On Monday morning, the ESPN staff released their revised power rankings, complete with a look at the executives, coaches, and players who will enter the regular season on the hot seat.

For the Titans, guard Dillon Radunz is the one listed on the “hot seat.” Meanwhile, the team climbed in the rankings, moving up two spots to No. 24 overall.

Post-draft ranking: 26

Who’s on the hot seat: RG Dillon Radunz

Radunz is battling for the starting right guard spot. The path got a little easier when Radunz’s primary competition, veteran offensive lineman Saahdiq Charles, retired abruptly. After bouncing between tackle and guard, Radunz entered this season finally able to focus on one position. The Titans selected Radunz in the second round of the 2021 draft, which puts him in the final year of his rookie contract.

Despite being listed on the hot seat, Radunz is in line to start for the Titans this season. How long that last hinges on how well he plays.

As far as the team themselves, the slight bump is likely relative to a cautious optimism that has begun to build. Several NFL analysts believe the Titans could be a surprise competitor in 2024, with some even predicting a return to the playoffs.
