NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Titans quarterback Jake Locker has missed his third straight practice with an injured right thumb and is questionable for Sunday’s game with Jacksonville.
Backup quarterback Charlie Whitehurst again took first-team reps for Tennessee (1-4). If Locker cannot play, he would miss his 16th start in 38 games since becoming the Titans’ starter in 2012 and his second in three weeks.
Coach Ken Whisenhunt said Locker did a little more Friday and threw the ball a little bit. Whisenhunt says he knows Locker works hard to stay prepared and is involved. But the coach says the final decision will be Locker’s health.
Tight end Craig Stevens is out with a quadriceps injury along with left tackle Michael Roos who is awaiting knee surgery.
