Starting inside linebacker Jack Gibbens, who has been one of their best players over the past few games, suffered a gruesome ankle/leg injury during the third quarter on Sunday. He was immediately carted off and ruled out.
After the game, head coach Brian Callahan gave an update and confirmed what many feared: Gibbens is likely to miss the rest of the season with an ankle/leg injury.

Gibbens is the second inside linebacker that the Titans have lost during 2024 after trading Ernest Jones to the Seattle Seahawks prior to the trade deadline. In his absence, linebacker Jerome Baker will likely see an increase in snaps moving forward.
The Titans will likely place Gibbens on injured reserve later in the week. More details will come out as they begin preparations for their Week 12 battle with the Houston Texans.
