Titans Lose 2 Offensive Linemen to Injured Reserve, Including Starting RG Fernando Carmona Jr.
Fernando Carmona Jr. and Jackson Slater were moved to injured reserve after Tennessee added four players to its practice squad.
- On Tuesday, the Tennessee Titans placed starting right guard Fernando Carmona Jr. and backup offensive lineman Jackson Slater on injured reserve following injuries sustained during Sunday's 12-7 loss to the New York Giants.
- Carmona suffered an ankle sprain during the first quarter, while coach Robert Saleh described Slater's foot injury as "pretty significant," forcing Tennessee to reshuffle its offensive line depth.
- To address the roster vacancies, Tennessee elevated rookie guard Garrett Dellinger and fifth-year running back Michael Carter to the active roster from the practice squad, as injured reserve requires players to miss at least four games.
- The 0-3 Titans may look to 25-year-old guard Atonio Mafi as a replacement while both players recover; per Jordan Schultz, Carmona "will miss a few weeks" following his ankle sprain.
- Facing an 0-3 record, the Titans visit the Baltimore Ravens this Sunday, testing the depth of a unit that previously ranked second in the NFL in pass blocking efficiency.
