Tennessee Titans designate Tory Carter to return from IR among 2 moves

The Tennessee Titans made a pair of moves on Monday, one of which paves the way to provide a boost to their rushing attack for the playoff matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday.

The Titans announced they designated fullback Tory Carter to return from Injured Reserve. Carter suffered an ankle injury in the Week 14 win over Jacksonville and hasn’t seen the field since.

The move opens up the 21-day window for Carter to return to practice and be activated off the list. He won’t count towards the 53-man roster until that happens.

It has been a successful rookie season for Carter. After being signed as an undrafted free agent in 2021, he worked his way up the depth chart, surpassing fellow fullback, Khari Blasingame.

As No Flags Film on Twitter points out, the numbers show that Carter has been a plus as a lead blocker for Tennessee.

In addition to the move with Carter, the Titans also removed running back Jordan Wilkins from the practice squad COVID-19 list.

Tennessee will host Cincinnati at Nissan Stadium in the Divisional Round on Saturday, with kickoff set for 3:30 p.m. CST.
