Well, this is not a good development. The Tennessee Titans placed defensive tackle T’Vondre Sweat on injured reserve today. That means he will miss the next four games. Early in the week, it seemed like Sweat might have a chance to play this week. Now he is out until at least week seven when Mike Vrabel and the New England Patriots come to town.
Stopping Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis Colts’ rushing attack was going to be a tall task even if Sweat was able to play. This just makes it that much tougher. It is going to take everyone on defense playing at their best for this group to have much of a chance to slow Taylor.
It’s been a rough start to the season for Sweat. He missed a lot of training camp after having a tonsillectomy. That caused him to lose weight and be behind in his football conditioning. Now he will miss the next four games because of an ankle injury.
The Titans elevated Carlos Watkins from the practice squad to take Sweat’s place tomorrow.
