The Tennessee Titans and Houston Texans have released their second-to-last injury reports of the week ahead of their matchup at Nissan Stadium on Sunday.
The Titans saw a total of five players upgrade their participation from Wednesday, including defensive lineman Denico Autry, center Aaron Brewer and quarterback Will Levis.
Defensive linemen Jeffery Simmons and Teair Tart, linebacker Jack Gibbens and wide receiver Kyle Philips were the most notable players to not suit up for the second straight day. Simmons is expected to miss at least another game.
As for the Texans, they have several concerns after defensive end Will Anderson, quarterback C.J. Stroud and wide receiver Nico Collins all didn’t practice for the second straight day.
It doesn’t look like Stroud will clear the concussion protocol in time and Anderson is dealing with a high-ankle sprain that is likely to keep him out this week.
Collins is trending toward not playing, also, although he appears to have the best shot of playing out of the three.
Now, a look at the full injury reports for both teams.
