Tennessee Titans running back DeMarco Murray has been ruled out for Saturday's AFC wild-card game against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a bad knee sprain, the team announced Thursday.

Murray missed the Titans' Week 17 finale against the Jacksonville Jaguars with an MCL sprain suffered in a 27-23 loss to the Los Angeles Rams the week before.

Sophomore running back Derrick Henry is in line to start against the Chiefs after making just two starts in the regular season. He compiled 744 rushing yards and five touchdowns with 136 receiving yards and one score on just 11 receptions.
