Titans Snag Chiefs CB Melvin Smith Jr | Kansas City Chiefs News

Tennessee Titans swoop in to claim former Chiefs cornerback Melvin Smith Jr. off waivers just days after KC’s final roster cuts — a move that adds depth and system familiarity to their secondary, especially with Nazeeh Johnson sidelined. Smith, a standout college DB with five INTs and a kickoff TD, spent his rookie year on the practice squad before injury derailed his shot at a spot in Kansas City. Now, with Tennessee’s corner depth thinning, Smith brings special teams versatility and fits seamlessly into their defensive scheme — and GM Mike Borgonzi’s quick move suggests they’ve been watching him closely. Can he crack the 53-man roster or settle into the practice squad? Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
