Titans Bolster Defense with Four Waiver Claims, Sign DT Shy Tuttle

The Tennessee Titans utilized their top waiver priority to bolster their defensive depth by claiming four players: cornerbacks Jalyn Armour-Davis and Samuel Womack III, linebacker Dorian Mausi, and defensive end C.J. Ravenell, while also signing veteran defensive tackle Shy Tuttle. To make room on their 53-man roster, the Titans released offensive lineman Corey Levin, defensive tackle Timmy Horne, linebacker Curtis Jacobs, cornerback Gabe Jeudy-Lally, and offensive tackle John Ojukwu. Defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson's familiarity with Armour-Davis from Baltimore and the players' diverse experience highlight Tennessee's plan to address roster holes, though the team notably did not add an edge rusher despite that being a key need. The Titans’ roster moves reflect a strategy to improve their defense ahead of their season opener against the Denver Broncos. Meanwhile, other NFL teams like the New York Jets also made waiver claims, but the Titans stand out as the busiest and most focused on defensive reinforcements. These changes signal the new general manager Mike Borgonzi's intent to rebuild and strengthen the team over the coming years.
