Broncos' Justin Simmons: Not in line to face Titans

Simmons (knee) isn't in line to play Sunday against the Titans, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Simmons came out of Denver's bye week battling a knee sprain, so the exact origin of the injury remains unclear. However, even after logging limited practice sessions both Thursday and Friday, he's on track to sit out the team's Week 10 matchup against Tennessee, with his status to be officially confirmed when inactives are posted ahead of Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff. P.J. Locke is projected to step into the starting role at free safety.
