McCreary (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Despite McCreary's questionable designation, his chances to play Sunday are likely slim, as the third-year corner was unable to practice all week after sustaining a shoulder injury in the second half of Tennessee's Week 13 loss to the Commanders. However, if McCreary is able to play through the issue in Week 14, he'll serve as the Titans' top slot cornerback.

McCreary (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
The third-year pro from Auburn played through his knee issue in Tennessee's Week 12 win over the Texans, recording six total tackles across 54 total snaps (48 defensive and six on special teams). However, Wednesday's DNP is a sign that McCreary may have worsened the injury and could be in jeopardy of missing Sunday's matchup against the Commanders.

Titans' Roger McCreary: Lands in Tennessee
Rotowire
The Titans selected McCreary in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 35th overall.
McCreary is a tough, physical corner out of Auburn who went ahead of several corners that were projected to go higher than him. The Auburn Tiger projects as a nickel corner given his physical tools (5-foot-11, 29.5-inch arms, 4.50 40-yard dash), but McCreary's technique and route recognition is impressive. He broke up an SEC-high 16 passes as a senior and gives Tennessee an interesting young group of corners that also features Caleb Farley and Kristian Fulton.
