Futures deals are essentially camp invites that will give players the opportunity to compete for roster spots during offseason workouts and training camp.
Nkansah, 24, signed on with the Titans as an undrafted free agent out of Toledo back in 2018. He was among Tennessee’s final roster cuts coming out of the preseason and signed onto their practice squad once he passed through waivers unclaimed.
Nkansah later caught on with the Seahawks and spent just over a year in Seattle before the Texans’ added him to their practice squad.
He has yet to appear in an NFL game.
