Perhaps Kenny Britt is not done for the season, as Matt Rybaltowski is reporting that Titans team doctors have not yet officially made a comment on Britt's MRI

CBS Sports is reporting that,

"

“Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt will undergo season-ending surgery on his right knee to repair multiple torn ligaments…”

"

No one was sure of his status after the game and the team initially hoped it was just an MCL injury, which would have sidelined Britt for a few weeks but not the entire season.

The CBS Sports Wire adds,

"

“The Titans are likely to lean on veteran vertical threat Nate Washington while asking more of Damian Williams and Lavelle Hawkins. The injury is a major hindrance for an offense that has been decidedly pass-first as running back Chris Johnson has rushed for just 98 yards in his first three games.”
