The Tennessee Titans don’t have a football game this weekend, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t still dealing with the fallout from injuries that occurred in their Week 12 loss to the New England Patriots. The team placed rookie third-round pick Monty Rice on Injured Reserve on Tuesday afternoon.
Rice earned the start in Sunday’s loss at the inside linebacker position alongside Jayon Brown, but suffered what appeared to be a serious ankle injury after partaking in just 19 snaps. Rice’s placement on IR now confirms that the injury is indeed serious.
