Titans Expect QB Jake Locker Will Be Able To Play Next Week | | Titans quarterback Jake Locker said he plans on playing next week at San Diego after injuring his left shoulder in the fourth quarter of Sunday�s game against the Patriots, Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean reports.
Indications are Locker suffered a shoulder separation when made a tackle on Patriots safety Patrick Chung. He did not return to the game.
Coach Mike Munchak said Locker, who completed 23-of-32 passes for 229 yards, a touchdown and an interception in a 34-13 loss, will be evaluated again on Monday.
�We assume he�ll be OK,� Munchak said. �We�d rather him not go in there and tackle anybody, but he is so competitive I guess. He wanted to go back in � but we just wanted to make sure he got checked out before we did something like that. The way the game was at that point we thought we�d hold him out.
