John Franklin-Myers Remains Injured
The first injury that the Titans are dealing with is with John Franklin-Myers, who was a top addition that the Titans made this offseason. He is an interior defensive lineman for the franchise and has proven to be a top pass rusher on the roster. Unfortunately for the franchise, it seems unlikely that he will make his way to the field for the first preseason game, as he is expected to be out at least another week with lower back pain.
Cor’Dale Flott Is a Wait and See
Cor’Dale Flott is the next on the list, as he is currently banged up, but the Titans will reportedly see where things stand ahead of the game to determine if he will be a go for the team. As of now, it does seem that this could be something that they don’t want to risk, as he is already feeling sore, and the Titans can’t afford an injury at cornerback before the season even begins.
