The Tennessee Titans are set to face the Houston Texans in Week 12, but they will be without four players. Running back Tyjae Spears is sidelined due to concussion protocol, while offensive tackle Leroy Watson IV is out with a back injury, leading to Nicholas Petit-Frere starting again.

Cornerback Gabe Jeudy-Lally and tight end David Martin-Robinson are healthy scratches, with Martin-Robinson yet to make his debut this season. The Texans have also ruled out several key players for the matchup.

Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan expressed his frustration with officiating after a 23-13 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, where penalties played a crucial role. Callahan received two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties while disputing a controversial unnecessary roughness call against Mike Brown.

The Titans were penalized 13 times for 91 yards, impacting key plays, including a wiped-out touchdown pass. Callahan noted the team’s struggles with officiating and the impact on their performance, as they fell to 2-8 this season.
