Titans lose OLB Derrick Morgan (shoulder) for a few weeks

Starting outside linebacker Derrick Morgan will be out for the next few weeks after suffering a shoulder injury Sunday, Tennessee Titans coach Mike Vrabel said Monday.

Morgan was injured late in the first half of the Titans' 21-0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens and was taken to the locker room before halftime for further evaluation. He was in street clothes when the team returned for the start of the second half.

Veteran linebacker Brian Orakpo will remain the starter on one side. The Titans will likely start rookie Harold Landry in Morgan's place, opposite Orakpo. They'll also rotate rookie Sharif Finch and Kamalei Correa into the lineup.

Starting right guard Quinton Spain also suffered a shoulder injury against the Ravens and did not return. Vrabel said Spain is day-to-day, but the team is hoping to have him back this week against the Los Angeles Chargers in London.

According to Vrabel, the team is excited about the chances of getting starting inside linebacker Wesley Woodyard back on the field. Woodyard was ruled out last week's game due to a shoulder injury. Rookie Rashaan Evans started in Woodyard's place and chipped in with seven tackles.
