Titans-Bengals Week 15: Offense, defense and special teams snap counts

The Tennessee Titans lost their Week 15 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Here are the snap counts on offense, defense and special teams.

The Tennessee Titans fell to the Cincinnati Bengals 37-27 on Sunday in a game that saw 10 turnovers and 26 penalties between the two teams. It was a sloppy outing that forced Brian Callahan to bench Will Levis after his third interception, and Tony Pollard’s foot/ankle injury impacted the ground game.

There was a lot of back-and-forth in this game, and both teams accumulated 370 yards or more on offense, but the Titans’ six turnovers compared to the Bengals’ four turnovers is what made the difference.

Now, let’s examine the snap counts that contributed to the Titans’ Week 15 loss.

Offensive snaps: 70
Defensive snaps: 69
Special teams snaps: 22

Despite Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Calvin Ridley getting the most snap counts on offense, Tyjae Spears was the most productive offensive player on Sunday. Chigoziem Okonkwo was the second-most productive offensive player, despite being on the field far less than both Ridley and Westbrook-Ikhine.

On defense, the only player on the field for the entire game was Amani Hooker, and he recorded six tackles (three solo). Chidobe Awuzie and Jarvis Brownlee Jr. were only one snap shy of being out there for every defensive play, and both played relatively well.

The special teams unit wasn’t called upon very often on Sunday, and that’s probably a good thing for the Titans given how they’ve played of late.

Titans injury report: Leroy Watson out, Tyjae Spears questionable

The Tennessee Titans have released their final injury report for Week 13 and expect to have Tyjae Spears back in the fold.

The Tennessee Titans will travel to Landover, MD, on Sunday to play the Washington Commanders in Week 13.

The Titans are getting healthier, although cornerback Chidobe Awuzie and offensive tackle Leroy Watson will remain sidelined this week. The good news is that Awuzie practiced all week, and head coach Brian Callahan is optimistic that he will be back for Week 14.

Callahan was also optimistic that running back Tyjae Spears, who missed Week 12 with a concussion, would clear protocol after practice and be ready to go. His addition could potentially boost the running game against the Commanders, who have struggled against the run throughout 2024. Spears was a full participant in practice on both Thursday and Friday but is questionable for Sunday.

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

Tennessee Titans

Out: OT Leroy Watson IV (back), CB Chidobe Awuzie (groin)

Doubtful: None

Questionable: RB Tyjae Spears (concussion)

Washington Commanders

Out: OT Andrew Wylie (concussion), RB Austin Ekeler (concussion)

Doubtful: CB Marshon Lattimore (hamstring)

Titans’ injury report: Multiple starters sit out practice

The Tennessee Titans released their first injury report for Week 12 and see multiple starters on the sidelines.

The Tennessee Titans dropped a tough one on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings and suffered some damaging injuries in the process. 

Heading into Week 12, it is already known that linebacker Jack Gibbens will be out and likely placed on injured reserve prior to kickoff. Gibbens suffered a devastating lower leg injury that required surgery on Monday. Since has not been placed on IR yet, he was a non-participant. 

Running back Tyjae Spears (concussion) and linebacker Otis Reese IV (ribs) were also injured during that contest. Spears is in concussion protocol and did not practice, while Reese practiced and was not listed on the injury report. 

Starting cornerback L’Jarius Sneed (quad) did not practice and is likely out for Week 12. Wide receiver Calvin Ridley, tackle Leroy Watson IV, defensive lineman Sebastian Joseph-Day, defensive back Justin Hardee, defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, Cornerback Roger McCreary, and linebacker Kenneth Murray did not practice

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)

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.

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.

Titans injury report: L’Jarius Sneed out again

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

The Tennessee Titans returned to the practice field to start preparing for their Week 9 matchup against the New England Patriots. This provided an opportunity to see if some of the missing starters could return. 

While many will be keeping tabs on Will Levis and how his shoulder is coming along, the status of cornerback L’Jarius Sneed should be the focus. Like Levis, Sneed has missed the past two games with a quad injury, and there has been no sign of him on the practice field.

As has been the case for the past two weeks, Sneed did not practice. He was joined on the sideline by wide receivers Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd, running back Tony Pollard, and others.

Levis (shoulder), Spears (hamstring), were among the limited participants.
