Titans’ reasons for optimism and concern in Week 9 vs. Rams

The Tennessee Titans go into their Week 9 game against the Los Angeles Rams with one major concern: the absence of running back Derrick Henry.

Henry broke a bone in his foot during the Week 8 win over the Indianapolis Colts that required surgery which will sideline him anywhere from six to 10 weeks, or quite possibly the rest of the season in the worst-case scenario.

Meanwhile, the Rams are riding high coming into this game. Like the Titans, they have won four-straight games, but unlike the Titans they have made a major addition instead of a subtraction after trading for Von Miller.

While the loss of Henry is chief among the Titans’ concerns going into this game against the Rams, it certainly isn’t the only one. Here’s a look at what the biggest reasons for both optimism and concern are for Tennessee going into Week 9.
