Titans RB DeMarco Murray has torn MCL
There’s a good reason Pro Bowl running back DeMarco Murray didn’t suit up for the Tennessee Titans’ win over the Kansas City Chiefs Saturday.
Derrick Henry will start for Titans this week. Says that DeMarco Murray has a significant injury (MCL tear).. expecting Henry show once again.

Murray reportedly has a torn MCL.
The second-year back from Alabama put up 191 yards on 25 touches in Tennessee’s comeback 22-21 win over Kansas City in the first round of the playoffs.
Considering Murray’s injury is now said to be a torn MCL, it’s highly unlikely he’ll play against the Patriots next weekend. Already near two-touchdown underdogs, this will place the Titans even further behind the proverbial eight-ball heading into Gillette Stadium.
It’s also an indication that Murray might have very well played his final game as a member of the Titans. They seem fully prepared to move forward with Henry as their three-down back.
