The Tennessee Titans ruled out receiver Calvin Ridley and outside linebacker Arden Key for Sunday's home game against the New England Patriots.

Ridley (hamstring) was injured in last week's 20-10 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders and didn't practice this week. Key (quadriceps) will miss second straight game. He was injured during a 22-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5 and sat out against the Raiders.

Ridley, 30, has 16 receptions for a team-high 290 yards. Key, 29, has 1.5 sacks this season after totaling 12.5 over his first two campaigns with Tennessee.

Interim head coach Mike McCoy said that receiver/special teamer Bryce Oliver (knee) and offensive lineman Blake Hance (shoulder) will also sit out against New England.

Kicker Joey Slye (right calf) will return after missing the game against the Raiders.

The game against the Patriots will be McCoy's first as interim coach. Tennessee fired Brian Callahan after the loss to Las Vegas dropped the team to 1-5.
