The Titans placed Woods (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woods sustained a hamstring injury in the Titans' Week 15 loss to the 49ers, and the injury was deemed severe enough to place him on IR. The four-week minimum for players placed on IR means that the safety's season is over. Kendell Brooks is currently listed as the starting free safety, but new addition Erick Hallett, recently signed from the Lions' practice squad, could also see a role in the Titans' secondary as the year ends.

Woods (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against San Francisco, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
With both Woods and Mike Brown (ankle) done for the day, Kendell Brooks will continue to work in an expanded role in the secondary. Woods missed three games earlier in the season due to a hamstring injury, though it's unclear whether he aggravated the issue during Sunday's contest.

Woods (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup versus the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Woods sustained the injury in the first half, leaving his status for the remainder of the game up in the air. Kendall Brooks should fill in at free safety with Woods sidelined.

Woods (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Woods has been cleared to return Sunday from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury. His return will likely result in rookie third-rounder Kevin Winston reverting to a rotational role at safety.

Woods (hamstring) is questionable for Tennessee's matchup versus the Jaguars on Sunday, Jim Waytt of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woods has been sidelined for the last three games but should have a chance to make his return Sunday. However, Kevin Winston will make another start at safety if Woods ends up being unable to play.

Woods (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Woods has been dealing with a hamstring issue for several weeks and hasn't played since Week 9. He's begun this week with consecutive limited practices, suggesting that he has a chance to return to action Sunday against Jacksonville. If Woods is able to suit up for that contest, Kevin Winston -- who has been starting in Woods' stead -- could return to a rotational role.

The first-year Titan has appeared in eight games this season, recording 34 total tackles and two passes defensed, including one interception.

Woods (hamstring) didn't participate in Tennessee's practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woods continues to battle the hamstring injury that held him out of the team's Week 9 loss to the Chargers. If he's forced to miss a second straight game, Quandre Diggs would likely draw another start at free safety.

Woods (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woods was unable to practice both Wednesday and Thursday after sustaining a hamstring injury in the Week 8 loss to the Colts. The 30-year-old has been an integral part of the Titans' defense, recording 34 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and two passes defended, with one interception, over the team's first eight contests. Now that he's set to miss his first game of the season in Week 9, Quandre Diggs is likely to start at free safety.
