NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee Titans defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons said he suffered a Tommy John ligament injury to his left elbow. The injury caused Simmons to miss the Titans' 31-12 win over the Miami Dolphins on Monday night.

"I had tore my ligament," Simmons said. "I'm sure everybody heard of the Tommy John with baseball players. I had that injury. But I'm good now."

Simmons was told he didn't need surgery to repair the injury that required him to wear a large brace on his left arm last week.
