It’s no secret that the Tennessee Titans are a banged-up football team. Especially at the inside linebacker position, where the team has been ravaged by injuries over the past few weeks.

Starter Kenneth Murray Jr. attempted to play through his hamstring injury in Week 16 but struggled, leaving the team short on depth. With Luke Gifford in concussion protocol and Otis Reese battling an ankle injury, the Titans are left with veteran Jerome Baker and rookies Cedric Gray and James Williams as healthy bodies.

This does not bode well for the defense, as Baker has been a disappointment since being acquired, and while talented, Gray and Williams are inexperienced and are not consistent. This situation led the Titans to add some depth to the position

The Tennessee Titans fell to 3-12 with their 38-30 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 16, and the game played out in a similar fashion to all of the Titans’ losses this season. They started the game strong, scoring first and getting a takeaway. But then they seemed to get lost on the field, it looked like chaos for almost two quarters as the Colts scored 38 straight points.

The Titans tried to battle back and finally found the end zone near the end of the third quarter, but it was too late by then to overcome the steep deficit the Colts built. Mason Rudolph did his best to lead his team down the field and Tyjae Spears gave the fans a reason to be excited about the future, but ultimately, they only added 23 more points and came away with a loss
