NASHVILLE — Tennessee Titans running back Dexter McCluster won’t play Thursday at Jacksonville because of a knee injury.

McCluster was ruled out for the Jaguars game in an injury report released Wednesday. Titans quarterback Zach Mettenberger has a sprained right shoulder and is listed as doubtful, with Charlie Whitehurst expected to start in his place. Offensive tackle Taylor Lewan also is doubtful because of an ankle injury that already has sidelined him for three games.

Linebacker Zaviar Gooden (hamstring), offensive tackle Byron Stingily (ankle), tight end Delanie Walker (knee), defensive end Kamerion Wimbley (hamstring) and wide receiver Kendall Wright (hand) are questionable. Safety Daimion Stafford (concussion) is probable.
