Why is Ryan Tannehill not playing tonight against Jaguars in Week 18? Injury update on Titans QB 

The Tennessee Titans take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 18 in the AFC South title decider but will be without Ryan Tannehill. The veteran quarterback hasn't featured in the team's last two games due to an ankle injury he suffered against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Tannehill underwent surgery and was hoping to recover in time to play tonight against the Jaguars in the AFC South title decider. However, the team placed him on the IR, effectively ending his season.

Who is the Titans' starting QB tonight against the Jaguars in Week 18 in Ryan Tannehill's absence?

Tennessee Titans QB Joshua Dobbs

Rookie Malik Willis was the team's backup quarterback for the majority of the 2022 season. He featured in eight games for the Titans, starting three, however, he was benched for the team's Week 17 clash against the Dallas Cowboys in favor of Joshua Dobbs.

Dobbs had a decent outing against the Cowboys. He threw for 232 yards and one touchdown with one interception in the Titans' 27-13 loss. The quarterback's performance was impressive enough for the team to name him as the starter for the game against the Jaguars. This is a huge opportunity for him to prove himself and stake a claim for next season.
