Titans add Peterson, Foreman to practice squad among several moves

The Titans also waived Avery Williamson from the active roster, and Mekhi Sargent from the practice squad.

The Tennessee Titans made a flurry of moves on their practice squad and active roster on the day after finding out that running back Derrick Henry would miss significant time with a foot injury.

After it was reported on Monday that the Titans would sign Adrian Peterson to the practice squad, the team made it official on Tuesday, while also announcing the signing of D’Onta Foreman to the practice squad.

In addition to those moves, the Titans waived linebacker Avery Williamson from the active roster, and running back Mekhi Sargent, defensive lineman Caraun Reid, and defensive lineman Eli Ankou from the practice squad.

Tennessee also added to the practice squad with the signings of defensive back Nate Brooks and defensive lineman Niles Scott.

Peterson is expected to lead the Titans’ backfield with Henry out, but Jeremy McNichols will also factor into the equation, and there’s a chance Foreman could get some looks, also.

The Titans will travel to Los Angeles to take on the Rams in Week 9. Before then, the NFL trade deadline will hit on Tuesday, Nov. 2 at 3 p.m. CT.
