Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger has a Grade III sprain in his right shoulder and will miss the team’s final three games, according to reports Monday.

Mettenberger reinjured his shoulder after being sacked in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s 36-7 loss to the New York Giants on Sunday. He was sacked five times in the game.
