The Titans have signed running back D’Onta Foreman to the practice squad, per a club announcement. Foreman will be joined by Adrian Peterson, who agreed to terms on Monday.

Peterson is set for a quick promotion — he’ll likely be brought up to the varsity squad later this week. Foreman, meanwhile, will provide additional insurance at running back in the wake of Derrick Henry‘s injury. Henry’s foot trouble is expected to shelve him for a minimum of six weeks, but a late-season return remains possible.
The Titans have also released linebacker Avery Williamson from the 53-man roster while dropping running back Mekhi Sargent and defensive linemen Eli Ankou and Caraun Reid from the 16-man practice squad. That’ll give them enough room to accommodate the veteran tailbacks, though at least one of those players figures to return once Peterson is elevated to the active roster.
That means Henry is probably done for the season
No
I knew this was coming. Foreman is a big back who worked best as a downhill runner with a high carry volume. At least, that’s who he was in college. After a promising early start, he’s been bouncing around tryouts for years. But if all the young FAs available right now, he most fit Tennessee’s style-and he’s spent time there before.
It’s unlikely that Foreman will be a big piece in Tennessee, but I figured that they’d give him a shot as depth after Henry’s injury.
