The Tennessee Titans are preparing for a crucial Week 14 clash against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but they face a setback as defensive back Julius Wood has been suspended for six games due to a violation of the NFL's Performance-Enhancing Substances Policy.

Wood, who has played nine games this season with minimal impact, was originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Dallas Cowboys before joining the Titans. Despite the suspension, the Titans, struggling with a 3-9 record, are focused on their playoff hopes and evaluating their roster for the future.

The Tennessee Titans are performing well against the Houston Texans in their Week 12 matchup, currently leading 17-14. However, the game has taken a toll on the team as defensive back Daryl Worley has suffered an injury in the second quarter and may not return.

Worley, who has been a valuable veteran presence in a young secondary, was filling in at safety due to injuries. His future with the team may depend on his health post-game, as this was his last chance to be elevated from the practice squad before potentially signing a full-time contract.
