The Tennessee Titans have often been praised for the defensive depth they’ve put forward this season. Several underrated players and veteran journeymen have performed admirably when afforded opportunities. That storyline came crashing down in Sunday’s ugly 35-10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Tennessee’s defense entered Sunday’s contest with several injuries. Denico Autry and Elijah Molden were inactive due to injuries. Inside linebacker Zach Cunningham remains on IR. A pair of early-game injuries to David Long Jr. and Kristian Fulton further exposed Tennessee’s defenders.
Inside linebacker Dylan Cole was forced to play increased snaps due to Long’s injury.
