The Tennessee Titans have been dealt a blow ahead of their upcoming game against the Jacksonville Jaguars as punter Bradley Pinion is in doubt due to illness.
Pinion, who has been with the Titans since 2019, has been a reliable presence in the team’s special teams unit. He has been a consistent punter for the Titans, averaging 44.7 yards per punt and pinning opponents inside the 20-yard line on 28 occasions.
However, Pinion’s availability for the upcoming game is now in doubt due to an illness that has kept him out of practice this week. The Titans have yet to make an official announcement on his status, but it is likely that he will be a game-time decision.
If Pinion is unable to play, the Titans will have to turn to either Ryan Allen or Trevor Daniel to fill in for him. Both Allen and Daniel have experience in the NFL, but neither has had much success as a punter.
The Titans are hoping that Pinion will be able to recover in time for the game, as his absence would be a big loss for the team. He has been one of the most reliable players on the team and his ability to pin opponents deep in their own territory has been invaluable.
It remains to be seen if Pinion will be able to play in the upcoming game, but it is clear that his availability is in doubt due to illness. The Titans will be hoping that he can make a quick recovery and be ready to go come game time.
