FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. – The Tennessee Titans have announced the activation of center Lloyd Cushenberry. Cushenberry suffered a season-ending injury, rupturing his Achilles tendon in Week 9 against the New England Patriots last season.
The Titans signed Cushenberry to a four-year, $50 million contract in March 2023, making him one of the highest-paid centers in the NFL. In eight games last season, Cushenberry allowed one sack and had an 89% pass block success rate according to Tru Media. Veteran offensive lineman Corey Levin started at center in place of Cushenberry last season and took all the first-team reps at that position during training camp. Also, Tennessee signed backup quarterback Trevor Siemian and released Tim Boyle. Siemian was added to the Titans’ practice squad last October and was activated for game day twice before being added to the active roster for the rest of the season in November. He did not see action in any game. Boyle was signed to the roster in March. He had a 4-of-13 passing record for 24 yards with one interception in Saturday’s first preseason game against the Buccaneers. The Titans are in Atlanta for joint practices on Tuesday and Wednesday before facing the Falcons in the second preseason game on Friday.We feel good about where Cushenberry is. He has worked very hard. We’ll see when he gets on the field.
Brian Callahan, Titans coach
