Baltimore LB hurts shoulder sacking Titans QB
Baltimore linebacker Terrell Suggs sprained his right shoulder sacking Tennessee quarterback Kerry Collins, and did not return to their 13-10 AFC divisional playoff game win Saturday over the Titans.
Baltimore linebacker Terrell Suggs sprained his right shoulder sacking Tennessee quarterback Kerry Collins, and did not return to their 13-10 AFC divisional playoff game win Saturday over the Titans.
Suggs chased down Collins from behind and used his right arm to grab him while pushing him to the ground. Collins got up quickly, but Suggs lay on the ground for a couple minutes and needed help from trainers. He was able to get up and walk off the field while holding his right arm against his body.
The linebacker had four tackles in last week's wild-card win at Miami, when he also forced a fumble.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh did not update the injury after the game.
Missing from the Titans' offense for the second half was Pro Bowl running back Chris Johnson with a right ankle problem. The rookie had 11 carries for 72 yards and one catch for 28 yards.
But his last carry was a 4-yard run in the middle of a drive in the second quarter that ended in an interception of Collins. He was seen on the sideline and had fresh tape on his right ankle, and he limped back onto the sideline for the second half without a helmet.
Kick returner Chris Carr also was injured for Tennessee, hurting his ribs and missing much of the second half. Defensive end Jevon Kearse was in and out in the second half with a right ankle injury.
Titans All-Pro defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth hurt his right leg in the fourth quarter, but returned.
Suggs wasn't the only Baltimore player who needed treatment. Right tackle Willie Anderson went to the sideline with a stinger on the first play of the Ravens' third possession, but returned a drive later.
All-Pro fullback Le'Ron McClain hurt an ankle and limped off. But he soon returned before leaving again late in the game.
The slugfest picked up in the third quarter when Ravens cornerback Samari Rolle, who started his career with Tennessee, hurt his groin. He didn't return.
