After an injury to wide receiver Kearis Jackson that led to his placement on injured reserve, the Tennessee Titans promoted fellow wide receiver Mason Kinsey from the practice squad to take his spot on the active roster.
That led to the team being one wide receiver shorter on the practice squad, with only 2023 undrafted free agent Tre’Shaun Harrison remaining at the position.
However, the Titans signed former Carolina Panthers sixth-round pick and wide receiver Shi Smith to the practice squad on Tuesday to fill the spot, one of five moves the team made.
Smith has appeared in 23 games (six starts) over his two-year career, catching 28 passes for 400 yards and two touchdowns in that span.
The South Carolina product also has experience in the return game, fielding 23 punts for 143 yards, an average of 6.2 yards per, and he has one 24-yard kick return under his belt.
