The Titans released quarterback Tyler Ferguson as a part of their Monday morning roster shakeup. The release of Ferguson leaves the Titans with three quarterbacks on the roster in Marcus Mariota, Blaine Gabbert, and sixth-round pick Luke Falk.
In addition to Ferguson, defensive back Ryan McKinley, defensive back Elijaah Goins, and running back Larry Rose have also been cut. All three players were signed just last week as a part of the Titans’ 22-man UDFA class.
In their stead, the Titans have signed former Tennessee-Martin defensive back Joseph Este, tight end Anthony Firkser (Harvard), linebacker Robert Spillane (Western Michigan), outside linebacker Tobenna Okeke (Fresno State), and defensive lineman Connor Flagel (Central Missouri)
The Titans may look to bring in a fourth QB as a camp arm, but they are likely set under center for the final 53-man roster.

The Jets waived 17 players, released three, placed two on the suspended list, and waived/injured one player in order to reach the 53-man maximum. Here’s the complete breakdown:
Waived:
- Anthony Firkser, RB
- Romar Morris, RB
- Jahad Thomas, RB
- Frankie Hammond, WR
- Gabe Marks, WR
- Dan Williams, WR
- Alex Balducci, OL
- Chris Bordelon, OL
- Ben Braden, OL
- Javarius Leamon, OL
- Patrick Gamble, DL
- Deon Simon, DL
- Lawrence Thomas, DL
- Frank Beltre, LB
- Connor Harris, LB
- Xavier Coleman, DB
- Robenson Therezie, DB
Reserve/Suspended:
- Jalin Marshall, WR (reserve/suspended)
- Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE (reserve/suspended)
Waived/Injured:
- Lucky Whitehead, WR (waived/injured)
Released:
- Kenbrell Thompkins, WR (released)
- Shamarko Thomas, DB (released)
- Tanner Purdum, LS (released)
Purdum was the longest-tenured player on the Jets’ roster, but he wasn’t performing up to standards this offseason. When the Jets acquired long snapper Thomas Hennessy in a trade with the Colts in late August, it was clear that Purdum’s time with the organization was coming to a close.
