Tennessee Titans roster-cut deadline looms after preseason, with 53-man rosters due by 3 p.m. CT on Aug. 26. Titans hold the No. 1 waiver priority, so they can claim released players first and may stash others on injured reserve to preserve flexibility for signings. Sixteen players were cut, including Gaziano, Mustipher and Hambright as veterans, plus Landers and Burks in injury-designated moves. The cut-day fallout comes as McLaurin’s extension in Washington could shift market dynamics, possibly nudging trades or waiver plays that impact Titans’ post-cut plans. The depth chart features a mix of rookies and veterans as Tennessee weighs immediate needs against future upside.
