Titans Placing CB Chidobe Awuzie On Injured Reserve

The Titans plan to place Awuzie on injured reserve which would cost him at least the next four games before he can be activated. 

Callahan said there’s a chance that CB Tre Avery will be promoted this week.

Awuzie, 29, is a former second-round pick by the Cowboys in the 2017 NFL Draft out of Colorado. He played out the final year of his four-year, $4.3 million rookie contract and tested the market as an unrestricted free agent in 2021. 

Awuzie signed a three-year, $21.75 million deal with the Bengals. He missed the remainder of the 2022 season due to a torn ACL he sustained in Week 8.

The Titans signed Awuzie to a three-year contract this offseason. 

In 2024, Awuzie has appeared in three games for the Titans and recorded four tackles and no interceptions.
