Head coach Brian Callahan stated Wednesday that Watson (back) is unlikely to return this week, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports. Watson wasn't able to play in Week 11, so this would be a second consecutive absence for the 26-year-old. If he's unable to suit up against the Texans on Sunday, John Ojukwu would likely draw the start at right tackle.

Leroy Watson Latest News
Likely to remain out
Head coach Brian Callahan stated Wednesday that Watson (back) is unlikely to return this week, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports. Watson wasn't able to play in Week 11, so this would be a second consecutive absence for the 26-year-old. If he's unable to suit up against the Texans on Sunday, John Ojukwu would likely draw the start at right tackle.
Sidelined in Week 11
Watson (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Watson likely sustained a back injury in the Titans' Week 10 loss to the Chargers, as he was unable to practice all week and is now in line to miss Sunday's matchup. John Ojukwu is expected to serve as Tennessee's top right tackle while Watson is sidelined in Week 11.
Flipped to Tennessee for late pick
The Titans acquired Watson from the Browns on Friday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports. In return, the Browns get the Titans' seventh-round pick -- No. 227 overall -- in this month's NFL Draft. Watson, 25, appeared in seven games for Cleveland last season, playing a total of 55 offensive snaps. New Titans OL coach Bill Callahan was with Watson in Cleveland last season, so the veteran coach must have liked what he saw from Watson in practice.
