The Tennessee Titans didn’t mess around filling the opening left by that Jeffery Simmons trade on Thursday. They’ve officially brought defensive tackle Timmy Horne onto the 53-man roster, grabbing him right off their practice squad. Talk about a fast turnaround, right?
Horne’s Quick Return and What It Means
Horne’s path back to the active roster has been a whirlwind this month. He was actually released when the Titans claimed defensive tackle Jonah Laulu off waivers, only to return to their practice squad literally the next day. Now, just days after a major trade, he’s back on the main squad, ready to get to work. Horne’s already put up five tackles in two appearances this month for them, showing he can contribute. This ain’t his first rodeo, though. He’s seen 21 games with the Falcons and Giants before this, stacking up 31 tackles in those outings.
More Roster Shuffle for the Titans
It’s clear the Titans are making moves to shore things up. Beyond Horne’s promotion, they also announced signing linebacker Dominique Hampton to their practice squad. It just shows you how much churn there can be on a roster, especially when a team moves a key player like Simmons.
So, the Titans are clearly busy shoring up their defensive front after moving a big piece. Horne’s back on the active roster, and Hampton’s in the practice squad mix. They’re making moves to find some answers up front.
