Titans cutting CB Eric Garror, WR Reggie Roberson Jr.

The Tennessee Titans are in the midst of making their final cuts before the 4:00 PM ET deadline to get the roster down to 53 players.

While most of these transactions were rather predictable, there have been a few shockers that have come to fruition over the past few hours.

Two of the biggest surprises thus far have been the Titans’ decision to part ways with cornerback Eric Garror and wide receiver Reggie Roberson Jr, according to Justin Melo of Broadway Sports.

Both have done well over the last few months, with Garror being one of the true standouts of the preseason.

Despite his smaller stature (5-foot-9, 178 pounds), the Louisiana-Lafayette product made plays when covering on the backend while being fearless in the run game. Garror also provided some versatility in the return game, but in the end, Tennessee opted to go elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Roberson was an early standout in training camp but wasn’t able to do much in the preseason, which no doubt halted his momentum.

Both Garror and Roberson should be prime practice squad candidates for the team unless they’re claimed by another team.
