Titans Cut 13 Players Including Veteran C Fernando Velasco

Update:

Jim Wyatt of TitansOnline.com reports that the team has waived DT Toby Johnson, S Josh Aubrey and TE Tevin Westbrook on Tuesday to get down to 75 players before today’s deadline.

• Tennessee also placed WR Andrew Turzilli and LB Yannik Cudjoe-Virgil on season-ending injured reserve.

Aubrey, 24, originally signed on with the Browns as an undrafted free agent out of Stephen F. Austin back in April of 2013. He briefly played for the Seahawks before signing to the Texans practice squad in September of last year.

Houston placed Aubrey on waivers shortly after this year’s draft, but he later caught on with the Titans in the first week of August.

In 2014, Aubrey appeared in two games, but didn’t record a single statistic.
