Tennessee Titans left guard Peter Skoronski has missed the past two games after undergoing an appendectomy prior to the Week 2 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Skoronski was in the locker room on Wednesday and spoke to the media about the issue. He noted that he lost his appetite and some weight but is thankfully doing fine otherwise.
“I was at the hospital, it ruptured but they caught it,” Skoronski said, per AtoZ Sports. “I’ve lost a little bit (of weight), lost my appetite a little bit last week. Definitely that’s part of the process of trying to gain it back.”
Skoronski noted he’s taking on a bit more each day and he’s “trending in the right direction” but did not say if he’ll play in Week 4.
Head coach Mike Vrabel echoed those sentiments, saying Skoronski is able to do more. However, he also didn’t provide an update on his status for Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.
#Titans HC Mike Vrabel says OL Peter Skoronski has been “doing a lot more” this week.
Still TBD in his status vs. Cincy.

Skoronski has become even more popular since Week 3, as there have been no shortage of calls to give him a shot at left tackle after Andre Dillard’s disastrous start to the season.
Vrabel didn’t rule out making changes when talking about the offensive line on Monday, but it remains to be seen if he’ll actually pull the trigger.
