The Titans have placed offensive lineman Brent Qvale on injured reserve, per a club announcement. To take his spot on the roster, the club has added fellow blocker Paul Adams.

Qvale, a sixth-year veteran, worked as a part-time starter with the Texans in 2020. The 6-foot-7 blocker joined the Titans just a couple of weeks ago in the wake of Spencer Pulley‘s injury, but Qvale’s season also appears to be over.
To date, Qvale has logged 18 starts as a pro with most of those coming during his five-year tenure with the Jets. Still, he’s yet to see more than six starts in a season. The Titans were considering him for a reserve role where he’d support starters Taylor Lewan and Ty Sambrailo. At some point, second-rounder Dillon Radunz is expected to leapfrog Sambrailo for the top right tackle spot.
I gather this is a legitimate season ending injury and not a move toward an injury settlement that would let him sign somewhere else when he’s ready to play. His name came to mind when Cameron Clark was placed on the IR.
