After a flurry of roster moves as waiver claims were announced, the Tennessee Titans made a fifth move to address their offensive line depth.
The Titans entered the season with some questionable depth behind JC Latham and Dan Moore . Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson improved through camp and grabbed the swing tackle role, but Austin Deculus struggled and was a surprise addition to the 53-man roster. But that changed on Monday afternoon when Tennessee signed veteran offensive tackle Hudson III and waived Deculus in a corresponding move.
Hudson entered the league as a fourth-round pick of the Cleveland Browns in the 2021 NFL Draft after college stops at Cincinnati and Michigan. The 6-foot-5, 313-pound lineman has seen action in 60 career games, making 19 starts with the Browns and New York Giants , and brings a veteran presence to the room to compete with Crenshaw-Dickson as the team's swing tackle. Hudson had spent training camp with the New England Patriots before being released.
