Tennessee Titans nose tackle Sammie Hill had surgery to repair an injured MCL in his knee on Wednesday.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Hill is expected to miss the first three games of the season for the Titans but will be able to play after the team’s bye in Week 4.
The team was still debating a course of action for Hill on Tuesday for the injury suffered last week, either in practice or early in the Titans preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Hill suffered a knee injury during OTAs in May that kept him on the Physically Unable to Perform list for the start of training camp.
