The Tennessee Titans are waiving starting nose tackle Teair Tart, according to a person familiar with the decision. Tart did not practice all week and was listed as out for personal reasons. The person spoke to The Associated Press on Friday on condition of anonymity because the Titans have not announced the move.
Will Levis has proven the rookie quarterback is a big reason the Tennessee Titans' future is bright. Levis became the franchise's first rookie quarterback to start and win a game in prime time since the NFL merger in 1970. Levis, now 3-4 as a starter, is unafraid to try and tackle a lineman after an interception or run downfield to recover his own fumble.
The Tennessee Titans placed punter Ryan Stonehouse and linebacker Joe Jones on injured reserve Friday after both suffered season-ending injuries in last weekend's overtime loss to Indianapolis. Titans coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that Stonehouse would need season-ending surgery after a Colts defender collided with the second-year punter's left, plant leg early in the fourth quarter. Vrabel fired special teams coordinator Craig Aukerman on Monday after the Titans also had a punt blocked and returned for a touchdown on the punt attempt before Stonehouse's injury.
The Tennessee Titans revamped their offensive line during the offseason from one end to the other, and they might wind up being worse. The Titans have allowed 35 sacks, better than only four other NFL teams. Tennessee was better than just five teams last season giving up 49 sacks.
