Mon Nov 04 14:30:00 UTC 2024: ## Titans’ Offensive Line Suffers Major Blow as Starting Center Lloyd Cushenberry Fears Torn Achilles
**Nashville, TN** – The Tennessee Titans’ offensive line, already facing challenges this season, could be dealt a significant blow with the potential loss of starting center Lloyd Cushenberry. Sources report that Cushenberry sustained a suspected torn Achilles during Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots.
While the team awaits confirmation from an MRI scheduled for Monday, the injury appears serious and would likely sideline the 26-year-old for the rest of the season. Cushenberry signed a four-year, $50 million deal with the Titans in the offseason after spending his first four years with the Denver Broncos.
“It’s a brutal blow to one of our most consistent linemen,” said an anonymous source close to the team.
Cushenberry’s injury comes just weeks after the team acquired him in a bid to bolster their offensive line. His absence could force the Titans to rely on veteran Corey Levin, who returned to the team this season after a stint with several other organizations. Levin played 16 games for the Titans last year but has only seen limited action this season.
Titans coach Brian Callahan declined to comment on Cushenberry’s injury during his post-game press conference, further fueling speculation about the severity of the situation.
The Titans will need to find a way to overcome this setback if they want to maintain their competitive edge in the AFC South. The team’s offensive line has been a mixed bag this season, and losing Cushenberry could further complicate their efforts to protect quarterback Ryan Tannehill.
