Vince Young limps off field for Titans

It’s never a good thing for the Titans when QB Vince Young is down on the field, holding his knee. That was the scene at Jacksonville’s EverBank Field midway through the first quarter Monday night.

Young suffered what looked to be a left knee injury against the Jaguars when he was bent backwards after recovering a fumbled snap. Young grabbed at his left knee and was in obvious pain as trainers checked him over, but he eventually was able to walk off the field under his own power, limping noticeably.

Young was immediately brought to a training table on the sideline, where trainers fit him for a knee brace.

Kerry Collins entered the game for the Titans. Given that Young was fitted for a brace immediately, though, he could be back in the game at some point after he tests the knee on the sideline.

UPDATE: The Titans announced that Young had sprained his knee and is questionable to return.

Young day-to-day, but fantasy risk in Week 7

The Titans feel like they have ‘dodged a bullet’ with Vince Young, but the young quarterback is day-to-day with a knee injury.

Fantasy owners, however, should consider sitting Young in Week 7 against the Eagles — one of the league’s top pass defenses. However, keep an eye on Young’s status if you own Titans WR Kenny Britt.

The second-year receiver has caught a touchdown in four consecutive games, but was virtually ignored by backup QB Kerry Collins. Britt is still a viable option especially with some many good receivers on a bye this week — Lions WR Calvin Johnson, Texans WR Andre Johnson and the entire Colts receiving corps.
