Roger McCreary Injured, Tennessee Titans

Injury Update

Tennessee Titans cornerback Roger McCreary left the team's Week 17 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars with an injury. The injury occurred in the third quarter when McCreary was covering Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk. McCreary went down with a non-contact injury and was unable to put any weight on his left leg. He was helped off the field by trainers and did not return to the game.

The Titans have not yet released an official update on McCreary's injury, but it is believed to be a significant one. McCreary is one of the Titans' top cornerbacks, and his absence would be a major blow to the team's defense. The Titans are already without cornerback Kristian Fulton, who is on injured reserve with a hamstring injury.

Impact on the Titans

If McCreary is unable to play in the Titans' Week 18 matchup against the Houston Texans, it would be a major setback for the team. The Titans are currently 7-9 and are fighting for a playoff spot. A loss to the Texans would eliminate the Titans from playoff contention.

Without McCreary, the Titans would be forced to rely on their depth at cornerback. Breon Borders and Chris Jackson would likely be the starters, with Buster Skrine and Elijah Molden serving as backups. Borders and Jackson have both played well in limited action this season, but they are not as experienced as McCreary.

Outlook for McCreary

The severity of McCreary's injury is not yet known, but it is likely that he will miss at least a few games. The Titans have a bye in Week 18, so McCreary could potentially return for the playoffs if the Titans make it that far.

McCreary is a talented young cornerback, and the Titans will need him to be at his best if they want to make a deep playoff run. The Titans will be hoping that McCreary's injury is not as serious as it appears, and that he will be able to return to the field soon.
