NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans have filled their final roster spot by agreeing to terms with defensive lineman Claude Pelon before their first practice of training camp.
The Titans also announced Thursday that offensive tackle John Theus has been designated as a "non-football injury."
Pelon gives the Titans 90 players in camp and fills the spot created Tuesday when Tennessee released outside linebacker Kevin Dodd when the 33rd pick overall from 2016 did not report last weekend.
The 6-foot-4 Pelon joined the Jets as an undrafted free agent in 2016 and spent time on both the practice squad and active roster with one game played. He played 20 games at Southern California with four sacks and a forced fumble.
