TitansJC Latham Says He’ll Miss Week 2 vs. Rams

Olisaemeka Udoh is expected to fill in at right tackle after Tennessee allowed six sacks in Week 1.

Overview

  • Latham said Thursday he will sit with a hip strain aggravated in the opener, noting the injury has lingered since a preseason joint practice.
  • He did not practice this week, and the team has not placed him on injured reserve.
  • Udoh replaced Latham in Denver and is in line to start on Sunday, with coaches stressing that reserves are prepared to step in.
  • The Titans surrendered six sacks in Week 1, heightening protection concerns for rookie quarterback Cam Ward against the Rams’ pass rush.
  • Latham, the No. 7 pick in 2024, started every snap at left tackle last season before moving to right tackle after Dan Moore Jr. was signed.
