Vested veterans have an advantage over players exposed to waivers today, and Shy Tuttle will be an early beneficiary. The recently cut Panthers defensive lineman has already found a new home.
Tuttle is set to join the Titans, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports. Tennessee will bring the two-year Carolina starter in on a one-year deal, adding an experienced player to a position group that stood as ray of light during a rough 2024 slate.
The Titans ranked second in total defense but 30th in scoring, owing part of the latter total to a poor quarterback situation. They return Jeffery Simmons, Sebastian Joseph-Day and T’Vondre Sweat up front. Tuttle figures to supply depth, doing so after spending the past four seasons as an NFC South starter.
More to come.
