Tennessee Titans backup running back Dexter McCluster is expected to miss 2-3 weeks with a knee injury suffered in Thursday night's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

McCluster, who is Tennessee's second-leading rusher and third-leading receiver. was hurt in the third quarter of the 19-13 loss. He carried the ball two times for zero yards, while catching a pair of passes for 18 yards. The six-year veteran also retuned one punt for six yards and had one kickoff return for 22 yards.

Wide receiver Harry Douglas took over the punt return duties after McCluster was injured.

While McCluster is likely to miss some time, interim head coach Mike Mularkey said wide receiver Kendall Wright is expected back for next Sunday's game against the Oakland Raiders.

"We’re hoping. We should have him back,’’ Mularkey said, per the team's official website. “We’ve got a light practice Monday, and (we’ll) just run him good Monday and see how he is Monday and come back Wednesday and put him in there.”

Wright has missed the Titans' last three games with a knee injury suffered Nov. 1 in the loss against the Houston Texans.
