The Chargers have had their fair share of injuries to key players this season.
The Titans are currently dealing with their own and will be short-handed when they come to town this Sunday as a result.
Defensive tackle Denico Autry, cornerback Kristian Fulton, safety Amani Hooker and wide receiver Treylon Burks were ruled out on Friday.
Tennessee is already without offensive tackle Taylor Lewan, edge defender Harold Landry, linebacker David Long Jr. and cornerback Elijah Molden, who are on injured reserve.
The Titans have lost their last three games, and the primary reason why they have struggled to pick up a win is because of their pass defense.
Tennessee is allowing the second-most passing yards per game (283.7) and has not produced a turnover in that span.
Not having Autry on the field has been the difference-maker, as he leads the team in sacks (seven). His partner-in-crime, Jeffery Simmons, has played, but an ankle issue has still hampered him.
Because of the lack of pass rush and vulnerable secondary, quarterback Justin Herbert could be in for a field, especially since he has wideouts Keenan Allen and Mike Williams at his disposal again.
Allen and Williams combined for 18 catches on 20 targets for 208 yards and a touchdown in Week 14.
Burks, the Titans’ 2022 first-round pick, has shown great flashes. He has 25 receptions for 359 yards and a touchdown in eight games this season. But he remains in concussion protocol.
