With the preseason opener nearing on Thursday, the Tennessee Titans are still in the process of finalizing their roster ahead of the duel against the Green Bay Packers. On Tuesday afternoon, the team parted ways with tight end Phillip Supernaw and placed linebacker Nate Palmer on Injured Reserve.
Supernaw had come into training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, but was activated late last week. After only participating in Friday’s practice, Supernaw was released today. Whether his injury played a part in his release is not yet clear, though missing a lot of offseason time probably didn’t help his chance of sticking on the roster as a backup tight end.
