Injury Report: Jones & Jones & Rucker
RDE Frostee Rucker and backup CB David Jones are questionable for the home opener against Tennessee on Sunday because of injuries sustained in a 17-10 loss at Baltimore.
Jones suffered a mild concussion when he took a blow to the head in punt coverage at 9:27 of the second quarter and didn’t return.
Rucker, who started in place of Antwan Odom, forced a turnover on the game’s opening possession when he put a jarring hit on Ravens TE Todd Heap after a 9-yard gain.
LDE Robert Geathers made the recovery of Heap’s fumble.
But Rucker surfaced on crutches after the game with an undisclosed leg or foot injury.
MLB Dhani Jones exited at 2:47 of the third quarter because of dehydration. He received intravenous fluid and returned to action.
Look for Odom to start in place of Rucker, while non-drafted rookie CB Simeon Castille fills in for Jones.

So now we’re down to what, 2 corners and a rookie corner? With David Jones out, doesn’t it seem like Deltha O’Neal was kinda important? I mean you need depth, right? This team hasn’t learned that in the past few seasons? Penny pinchers.
