According to multiple reports, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Mason Kinsey will not be on the team’s initial 53-man roster as he is being waived.
Kinsey, originally a 2020 undrafted free agent signing of Tennessee before getting cut last year, was a star for the Titans during this year’s training camp and finished out the preseason as the team’s leading receiver.
However, the Titans had a very competitive wide receivers room. If the situation had been different, Kinsey would have made the squad.
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero notes that the hope is Kinsey can be retained on the practice squad, but he’ll first have to clear waivers. There’s a chance that won’t happen, though, as Kinsey turned heads in exhibition play.
The Titans have to cut their roster down to 53 players by 3 p.m. CDT, and after they should start putting their practice squad together on Wednesday afternoon. We’ll see if Kinsey ends up on it or not.
