Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks has suffered an apparent leg injury during joint practices with the Minnesota Vikings, forcing his early exit from the session.

According to multiple reports, Burks suffered the injury after coming down with a deep ball during the session. Burks was able to limp off the field under his own power but was later carted off.

The exact area of the injury and severity remains unclear.

It appeared that trainers were holding his left knee, per reporters, but Titans beat writer Paul Kuharsky and AtoZ Sports’ Sam Phalen noted Burks might’ve been clutching at his calf area.

We have video of the play below, along with the aforementioned reports from beat writers on the ground.

This is obviously scary news for the Titans, as Burks is set to play a key role in Tennessee’s offense as the No. 2 receiver behind DeAndre Hopkins.

While no injury is ever ideal, the hope is that this is a calf issue rather than a knee.
