Titans' Amani Hooker: Won't play against Houston
Rotowire

Hooker entered the league's concussion protocol following the Titans' 24-18 loss to the Ravens in Week 4.

Titans' Amani Hooker: Enters concussion protocol
Rotowire
Hooker is in the league's concussion protocol and did not practice Wednesday, Easton Freeze of AtoZSports.com reports.
Hooker presumably sustained the concussion during the Titans' Week 4 loss to the Ravens, when he played nearly every single defensive snap and finished with six solo tackles. There's two more chances for the veteran safety to return to practice, but even if he logs a full session, he would need to pass an evaluation from an independent neurologist before being cleared to play. Tony Adams would likely start next to Kevin Winston (shoulder) if Hooker is not cleared to play against the Texans on Sunday.

Hill has played every single defensive snap through three regular-season games, and he finished Sunday's game as the Titans' second-leading tackler behind Jeffery Simmons (10).
