Losers of 13 of 14, Titans set for top draft pick

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Titans have finally slumped to a new low: They're the first NFL team with 13 losses this season.

But wait, there's more.

Their ninth straight loss assured their worst season in Tennessee and worst since going 2-14 in 1994. Their 21-13 loss in Jacksonville on Thursday night also moved the Titans into the top overall draft selection with one game remaining. The last time this franchise picked first overall was 1978 when they traded with Tampa Bay to select Earl Campbell.

First-year coach Ken Whisenhunt said Friday he hasn't even had one thought about picking first April 30 and isn't concerned with draft status right now.

''That's something there's plenty of time to talk about, worry about,'' Whisenhunt said. ''We're coming off of a tough loss in a game last night in a game where we felt like we could've won just like the last two weeks. I mean it's tough. We're trying to get better as a football team, playing a lot of different guys, and we've had a lot of injuries and our guys are battling.''

The Titans (2-13) placed their 15th player on injured reserve Thursday, the second-most for this franchise since 1990.
