Titans promote Sam Okuayinonu among slew of roster moves

The Tennessee Titans announced a slew of roster moves on Tuesday, one of which included the promotion of defensive lineman Sam Okuayinonu from the practice squad to the active roster.

Okuayinonu was a 2022 undrafted free agent signing of the Titans. After failing to make the initial 53-man roster, Okuayinonu was added to the practice squad.

To make room for Okuayinonu on the active roster, the Titans waived outside linebacker Wyatt Ray, who was added last week.

In addition to those moves, the Titans added two and subtracted one from the practice squad, signing running back Julius Chestnut and defensive back Shyheim Carter, and parting ways with offensive lineman Christian DiLauro.

Chestnut, who was a standout during training camp and the preseason before unexpectedly making the initial 53-man roster, was waived last week to make room for Ray.

After notching their second-straight win in Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts, the Titans will hit the road again on Sunday, facing the Washington Commanders in Week 5.
