Overview

  • NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero first reported the practice-squad moves on Thursday.
  • New England released tight end Marshall Lang and defensive tackle David Olajiga from the practice squad to create space.
  • Thomas Odukoya, a Netherlands native with prior experience under Mike Vrabel in Tennessee, was promoted to the Titans’ 53-man roster on Oct. 11 and waived this week.
  • Leonard Taylor III entered the NFL as a 2024 Jets undrafted free agent and has appeared in 16 games with 27 tackles and 1.5 sacks before his Oct. 14 release.
  • The roster shuffling continues a depth-focused reset that also included signing former Falcons starting safety Richie Grant earlier in the week.
