Xavier Restrepo, Amani Hooker injury updates: Tracking Titans' news before Browns game

The Tennessee Titans are preparing for a game against the Cleveland Browns on Dec. 7, in which some of the biggest injury questions revolve around the Titans' patchwork offense.

The Titans (1-11) visit the Browns (3-9) at Huntington Bank Field on Sunday (noon CT, FOX). Most of the headlines will be about the rookie quarterback battle between Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders, but the supporting cast around Ward will need to be evaluated. Center Lloyd Cushenberry III, left tackle Dan Moore Jr. and receivers Elic Ayomanor and Xavier Restrepo could all be on the injury report this week as the team deals with some late-season injury woes.

The injury issues extend to defense, where players ranging from safeties Amani Hooker and Xavier Woods to cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis are all dealing with ailments.

Titans interim coach Mike McCoy will address reporters on injury updates on Wednesday and Friday, and the Titans will release daily injury reports on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The Tennessean also will attend practice and share updates from the media viewing windows as permissible.

Follow along below for the latest injury updates as the Titans prepare for the Browns.

Titans injury updates vs Browns: NFL Week 14 injury tracker, who's in, who's out

Cushenberry exited the Titans' loss against Seattle with a foot injury and did not return. He didn't practice in the week that followed and missed the game against Jacksonville. Veteran Corey Levin filled in for Cushenberry.

Xavier Restrepo, WR, ankle

Restrepo had to be carted off the field with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter of the game against Jacksonville. He did not return, and McCoy has yet to offer any updates about his status. Restrepo is on the practice squad but has been active for the past two games via standard game-day elevations.

Jalyn Armour-Davis, CB, Achilles

Armour-Davis, one of the regulars in the cornerback rotation, missed the game against the Jaguars with a foot injury that cropped up during the week. Without him, the Titans' options at cornerback include recent signee Kaiir Elam and rookies Marcus Harris and Micah Robinson.

Amani Hooker, S, rib

Hooker exited the Jaguars game with a rib injury and did not return. McCoy has not provided updates about Hooker's status.

Elic Ayomanor, WR, hamstring

Ayomanor was on the injury report for the better part of two weeks with a hamstring injury, but he returned to action against the Jaguars.

Kendell Brooks, S, concussion

Brooks, one of the Titans' more reliable special teams options, missed the team's past two games while in the concussion protocol. He'll have to practice multiple times this week to clear the protocol and play on Sunday.

Dan Moore Jr., OT, knee

Moore was on the injury report throughout the week leading into the Jacksonville game, but he played. He came out late after halftime of the Titans' loss to Seattle and did not return. He was later announced to have suffered a knee injury.

Xavier Woods, S, hamstring

Woods, one of the Titans' regular starters, missed back-to-back games with a hamstring injury but returned against Jacksonville. He was on the injury report throughout the week leading up to the game.
