The Tennessee Titans can’t seem to catch a break regarding the injury bug. It looked as though they were poised to make a run in the AFC South and at least have a winning record by season’s end, but a loss to the win;less Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday was a setback to say the least.

His offensive weapons aren’t much to speak of either, especially at wide receiver. The team was hoping Kevin Walter would be healthy enough to come off the PUP at some point and upgrade that position, but it appears as though he won’t be healthy enough to play this year:
