Former Kentucky LB Avery Williamson returning to Tennessee Titans

Former Kentucky linebacker Avery Williamson is returning to his first home in the NFL, signing a deal with the Tennessee Titans.

Just one week after signing with the Broncos practice squad, the veteran linebacker was brought back to the Titans to join the team’s active 53-man roster. Williamson will be eligible to play immediately.

9News reporter Mike Klis was the first to break the news.

Williamson is now in his eighth NFL season, suiting up for the Tennessee Titans (2014-18), New York Jets (2018-20), Pittsburgh Steelers (2020) and Denver Broncos (2021) before finding his way back to Nashville.
