The Tennessee Titans dropped another close contest in Week 16, losing to the Seattle Seahawks in a game that they probably should’ve won despite all of their notable absences.
Tennessee was without several notable names on both sides of the ball, including quarterback Will Levis, defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, guard Daniel Brunskill and safety Amani Hooker, just to name a few.
