Titans S Michael Griffin Could Be Out “A While” With Dislocated Shoulder

Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reports that Titans S Michael Griffin suffered a dislocated shoulder during Sunday’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

• Garafolo mentions that Griffin has a second opinion scheduled, but there is a chance that he could be out “a while.“

This would be a big loss for the Titans’ defense as Griffin has been one of their best players in recent years.

Griffin, 29, is in the third year of his five-year, $35 million contract that includes $15 million guaranteed. He’ll make a base salary of $6.2 million for the 2014 season and another $6.3 million next year

Should this be the end for Griffin, he will have finished the year with 82 tackles, three sacks, two interceptions and four passes defensed over the course of 11 games. However, Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 79 safety out of 83 qualifying players this season.

We’ll have more updates as the news is available.
