Adam Schefter first reported that initial tests on Titans RB DeMarco Murray’s knee revealed that he has an LCL sprain, but the plan is for him to undergo an MRI today to confirm the severity of the injury.

According to Ian Rapoport, Murray is considered a long-shot to play in Week 17’s game based on the pain he was in last night.
