Titans place Latham, Hooker on PUP

The Tennessee Titans have placed both offensive tackle JC Latham and safety Amani Hooker on the physically unable to perform list to start training camp, with the team noting that players on PUP can be activated at any time. Latham’s absence opens opportunities at right tackle for veterans and rookies such as Austin Deculus, Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson, and Aamil Wagner, while Hooker’s injury situation prompts extended looks at backups like Tony Adams, Kendell Brooks, and rookie Bishop Fitzgerald, alongside Kevin Winston Jr. entering a potential starring role beside Hooker when healthy. The club also signed Zachary Thomas and waived Ryan Hayes as part of roster adjustments around camp. Thomas, a former sixth-round pick with multiple NFL teams, adds additional depth to the tackle position. Reports from multiple outlets emphasize that neither Latham nor Hooker’s injuries are expected to be long-term, and both players could be back on the field within weeks. Titans rookies reported to camp with the notable question of how the depth at safety and tackle will develop as they approach the season opener.
