Credit rookie Hunter Henry for playing through a knee injury last Sunday in Denver.
It is serious enough to sideline him now.
The Chargers tight end missed his third straight practice Friday and will not play versus the Titans on Sunday, sources said. With the ailment not considered overly significant, his status will be monitored to determine his availability next Sunday against the Dolphins. San Diego has its bye the following weekend, so if deemed necessary, a two-game absence would allow for a three-week rest period.
Henry was injured early during a loss to the Broncos.
