The Jacksonville Jaguars will be without Jordan Davis and Jessie Bates III when they play the Tennessee Titans in Week 10, with head coach Liam Coen stating that both of them need to rest and get themselves acclimated after being traded at the deadline.
Aside from Davis and Bates, center Robert Hainsey won't be available in Week 10. The good news is that the Jags don't need them to beat Tennessee. Moreover, running back Bhayshul Tuten will be available for the division showdown.
The Jaguars will be without Hainsey but Bhayshul Tuten is good to go
The Jaguars posted their final injury report for Week 10 and listed Robert Hainsey as questionable for Week 10. He's dealing with a concussion and won't return unless he clears protocol. If he isn't good to go against Tennessee, Jonah Monheim will get the starting nod at center, his first one this season.

While Hainsey has a chance to play, Jordan Davis, safety Jessie Bates III, and defensive end B.J. Green II have been ruled out. The team just activated Green's 21-day window to return from the Injured Reserve. On the other hand, Davis and Bates will rest, since neither has had their BYE — the Jags had theirs in Week 8.
Although Bhayshul Tuten was limited throughout the week, he'll be a full-go. Here's what Liam Coen had to say about his availability when he met with the local media ahead of the AFC South game.
"Yeah, Tut will practice today and be able to get out there running around. I think it's usually case by case, in general," Coen told reporters Friday. "You want to practice. Performance equals game reality every week, but it's also a fine line, and every situation is different. I think with the running back position, it's one of those that ultimately you can play and not practice a ton because the runs are the runs.
Coen continued, "It's not as if I think it's very hard for the quarterback or the offensive line and things like that, where there's a lot of adjustments, communication involved on the offensive side of the ball specifically. So Tutem will run around today and buzz around, so he'll be good to go on Sunday."
Tuten was a game-time decision against the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night but ended up playing, toting the rock 12 times for 29 yards. It's possible that the sophomore running back wasn't at full strength, but with enough time to rest due to the long weekend, there's a chance that he'll bounce back against Tennessee.

The Jaguars have no excuse not to beat the Titans
The Jaguars are a 10.5-point road favorite against Tennessee, and understandably so. The Titans just traded defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons and safety Amari Hooker at the deadline. They were arguably their two best players on defense. Without them, Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville offense should have no trouble putting points on the scoreboard.
On defense, Cam Ward has made strides but has otherwise struggled throughout the season, and his supporting cast has failed to help him, so even though Jordan Davis and Jessie Bates III won't play, the Jaguars defense should feast on the Titans offense.
Simply put, the Jaguars have more than enough talent to come out of Nissan Stadium with their seventh win of the season.
