The Tennessee Titans have closely guarded their quarterback plans for Sunday night’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs and are hoping not to reveal them until pre-game warmups, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill is listed as questionable because of an ankle injury. He was spotted in a walking boot last week, with a possible high ankle sprain, sources told Schefter.
If Tannehill cannot play — and some have estimated it at 50-50 — rookie Malik Willis would make his second consecutive start. In his first career start last week, Willis went 6-of-10 for 55 yards with one interception and no touchdowns in a 17-10 win over the Houston Texans.
Tannehill had previously made 49 consecutive starts for Tennessee, a franchise record for quarterbacks.
Meanwhile, Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, who is listed as questionable due to an ankle injury, is likely to play against the Chiefs, sources told Schefter.
