The Tennessee Titans announced a slew of roster moves ahead of their Week 17 game against the Houston Texans, one of which included placing rookie tight end Josh Whyle on injured reserve.
With Whyle going to IR, his rookie campaign is over. The Cincinnati product suffered a knee injury in Week 13 and had missed the previous three games.
The fifth-round pick finishes his first season in the NFL with a meager nine catches for 94 yards and a touchdown, but he didn’t exactly get a ton of playing time when healthy.
He did, however, show flashes, both as a pass-catcher and run-blocker.
In addition to placing Whyle on IR, the Titans promoted defensive lineman Ross Blacklock to the 53-man roster and elevated linebacker Tae Crowder and defensive back Kendall Sheffield from the practice squad for Week 17.
