When you think about what the Tennessee Titans had to go through with injuries this season, it makes their 12-5 finish even more impressive. The Titans fielded a total of 91 players over the course of the 2021 season, a new NFL record. And for those that say “well, there was an extra game this season,” it’s important to note the Titans broke the record in Week 12. Despite that, and not having superstar running back Derrick Henry for more than half of the season, the Titans still managed to win the AFC South and clinch the No. 1 seed, giving them a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the AFC portion of the playoffs. According to Man Games Lost, injured Titans players missed a total of 336 games, the third-most in the NFL. Of the teams in the top five along with Tennessee, only the Titans made the playoffs.
