John Rieger-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
Tennessee Titans quarterback Jake Locker is inactive for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts due to a wrist injury, the team announced.
Backup quarterback Charlie Whitehurst will start in Locker's place as the Titans look to get back in the win column after suffering two straight losses. It's the fifth career start for the 32-year-old Whitehurst, who hasn't completed a pass since 2011.
Zach Mettenberger moves up to No. 2 on the team's quarterback depth chart for Sunday.
