Tennessee Titans head coach Ken Whisenhunt told reporters Friday that quarterback Jake Locker will be listed as questionable for this weekend's home game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Locker suffered a bruised thumb last weekend against the Cleveland Browns. Whisenhunt​ said earlier in the week that Locker would be considered day-to-day.

The quarterback was officially listed as "Did Not Practice" on the team's Friday injury report, despite making some "soft tosses" during portions of Friday's practice.

Locker has not practiced all week, and is expected to be replaced on Sunday by Charlie Whitehurst.

During his time in the NFL, Locker has missed 15 of a potential 37 starts due to various injuries.

Locker, currently in his fourth year in the league, has completed 58 percent of his passes for 764 yards, four touchdowns and four interceptions. His quarterback rating for the season so far is 75.9.

Joining Locker as questionable are cornerback Coty Sensabaugh and tight end Taylor Thompson. Running back Shonn Greene was listed as doubtful with a hamstring injury.

Greene's absence will likely yield more playing time for Bishop Sankey and Dexter McCluster, Wyatt added.

The Titans are 1-4 so far this season, and are currently third in the AFC South.
