Tennessee Titans receive vital boost as Cedric Gray clears concussion protocol
With only two games left in the regular season, the Tennessee Titans find themselves at a crucial crossroads. Their upcoming Week 17 clash against the New Orleans Saints represents perhaps their last substantial opportunity to secure a victory this season. The stakes are high, especially with a challenging matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars looming in Week 18.
Injury Updates and Defensive Depth
Fortunately for the Titans, they’ve received a significant boost with the news that star linebacker Cedric Gray has successfully cleared concussion protocol. His return could provide a much-needed lift to the team’s defense as they prepare for a must-win situation.
Despite this positive development, the Titans are not without their challenges. Three players have been ruled out for the game, adding to the team’s depth concerns. Cornerback Marcus Harris, linebacker Femi Oladejo, and wide receiver Bryce Oliver will all miss the matchup against the Saints. While their absence might not dramatically alter the course of the game, it still represents a loss of valuable depth, especially on a defense that is already under pressure.
Key Players Out
Marcus Harris — OUT
Femi Oladejo — OUT
Bryce Oliver — OUT
The Titans will need to lean on their remaining players to fill the gaps left by these absences. With Gray back in the mix, the team’s defensive unit will hope to rally and put forth a strong performance against the Saints. As the Titans aim to maximize their chances for success in these final games, every player on the roster will need to step up and contribute to the cause.
