The Tennessee Titans were without three starters in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Chargers. On Wednesday, head coach Mike Vrabel provided updates for the trio.
Left guard Peter Skoronski missed the Week 2 game after undergoing an appendectomy that can sideline a player anywhere from one to four weeks depending on what type.
The secondary was without two players in cornerback Kristian Fulton and safety Amani Hooker, who were dealing with a hamstring injury and a concussion, respectively.
We received good news from Vrabel on Fulton and Hooker, both of whom are expected to practice on Wednesday. Hooker has yet to fully clear the concussion protocol, though.
Meanwhile, it was the opposite for Skoronski, as Vrabel revealed he is unlikely to play in Week 3 as he continues to recover from the procedure.
Vrabel doesn’t anticipate LG Peter Skoronski being back Sunday after appendectomy last weekend. Titans S Amani Hooker and CB Kristian Fulton expected to practice. Hooker still has to clear the concussion protocol that includes how he handles practice.

Xavier Newman got the start in Skoronski’s place in Week 2, but he was pulled for Dillon Radunz after struggling mightily early on. Radunz went on to allow three pressures but no sacks. He figures to get the nod in Week 3.
