Tennessee Titans suffer multiple injuries in game against Seahawks

0

The Tennessee Titans earned a 16-15 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday in the second week of the preseason, but it came at a price.

Several players on the Titans roster are currently recovering from injuries that could affect their ability to play next week, but there was one key player who played despite being sick, which helped the team tremendously.

The hero of the game, kicker Brayden Narveson, also had to struggle with illness but continued playing.

“I was sick this morning, so I didn't know if I would be able to play,” Narveson said of team reporter Jim Wyatt.

Maybe Narveson should get sick more often considering he made three field goals in the fourth quarter to help the Titans win, including a 59-yard strike and a game-winning 46-yard strike.

In other injury news, wide receiver and kick returner Kearis Jackson suffered a knee injury in the first half after playing just three snaps for the Titans. However, Jackson's injury “doesn't appear to be serious,” according to coach Brian Callahan, according to Wyatt.

Running back Jabari Small left the game in the second half with concussion-like symptoms and is currently being evaluated in NFL protocol. Small had seven carries for 13 yards in yesterday's win.

Also on the injury list is defensive tackle TK McLendon Jr., who injured his foot in last night's win.

McLendon's injury is a bit more serious considering how difficult the team is having to stay healthy on the defensive line. Earlier this week, the team lost Marlon Davidson for the rest of the season after he tore his biceps.

If McLendon is out for a long time, the Titans would only have newcomers Abdullah Anderson, Quinton Bohanna, Keondre Coburn, Isaiah Iton, Sebastian Joseph-Day, Jeffery Simmons and rookie T'Vondre Sweat.
