Titans' Treylon Burks to miss rest of season with knee injury

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans will be without wide receiver Treylon Burks for the rest of the season, according to coach Brian Callahan.

Burks was placed on injured reserve in October after suffering a non-contact knee injury during practice. Callahan said Burks' injury was initially diagnosed as a "loose ACL" that wasn't fully torn.

After a series of examinations by doctors and specialists, it was determined that Burks would need surgery.

Veteran wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, who was inserted into the starting lineup in place of Burks, has eight touchdown catches over the past eight games.
