The Tennessee Titans have decided to waive wide receiver Cameron Batson, the team announced on Monday evening. It’s likely that Jadeveon Clowney will take his spot.
With Batson gone, the Titans are now down to five receivers: A.J. Brown, Corey Davis, Adam Humphries, Kalif Raymond and Cody Hollister.
Batson made the Titans’ initial 53-man roster out of training camp after sitting out the entire 2019 season. In 2018, he played in 11 games for Tennessee and caught eight passes for 82 yards.
The Titans only have one receiver on their practice squad, so it’s possible we see Batson resurface there. As of right now, the team still has three spots to fill on the practice squad. On top of receiving duties, Batson can also contribute in the return game, so he does hold some value in that regard.
Tennessee will finally open its 2020 season on “Monday Night Football” on September 14 against the Denver Broncos at Empower Field at Mile High. It will be the second game of the Week 1 doubleheader.
