The Tennessee Titans may need to use their backup quarterback next weekend. Charlie Whitehurst better get prepped to step out onto the field because Jake Locker had to have an MRI this morning. At the end of the day, Locker was barely able to grip the football. Locker injured his wrist in the game after getting beat up by the Cincinnati Bengals.

Locker struggled big time against the Bengals. He completed just 17-of-34 passes for 185 yards. He also threw a pair of interceptions, but he did run the ball fairly nice for the team. He picked up 50 yards on the ground. The team needs him to throw the ball though and pick up wins.
