Moving on to Atlanta

The Falcons signed Woodside off the Titans' practice squad Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Coach Arthur Smith already has made the move from Marcus Mariota to rookie Desmond Ridder under center during Atlanta's bye week. Now, Woodside's addition means he must stay on the Falcons' active roster for at least the next three games. It's unclear if Mariota will be fazed out entirely as a healthy scratch moving forward, but the reserve situation behind Ridder may be in flux between Mariota, Woodside and Feleipe Franks.

Moves back to practice squad

The Titans reverted Woodside to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Analysis: With Ryan Tannehill dealing with an ankle injury, Woodside was elevated to the active roster each of the past two weeks to back up Malik Willis. Despite Willis' struggles, Woodside did not take a snap in either contest. Whether he's elevated again for Week 10's clash with the Broncos will largely depend on Tannehill's health.

Elevated to active rsoter

Woodside was elevated from the Titans' practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Analysis: Woodside has been elevated for the second consecutive week with Ryan Tannehill's (ankle) status still unclear. If Tannehill is unable to suit up, Woodside will serve as the backup to Malik Willis.

Back to practice squad Monday

Woodside reverted to the Titans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Analysis: Woodside was called up to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 17-10 win over the Texans to serve as the backup quarterback behind Malik Willis, who started in place of injured signal-caller Ryan Tannehill (ankle/illness). Woodside did not ultimately play in this one-score contest, and he'll now be eligible for two more elevations from Tennessee's practice squad this season.

Elevated to active roster

Tennessee elevated Woodside from its practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's matchup against Houston, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Analysis: Ryan Tannehill (ankle/illness) has been ruled out for Week 8, so Malik Willis is expected to make his first career NFL start. After the elevation, Woodside is in line to serve as the primary backup to Willis. Across 11 regular-season appearances, Woodside has completed one of three passes for seven yards and rushed 13 times for four yards.

Back with Tennessee

The Titans signed Woodside to their practice squad Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Analysis: As expected, Woodside lost the backup QB competition to rookie Malik Willis, but he'll rejoin the team as an emergency option on the practice squad. The 2018 seventh-round pick has thrown only one pass across 11 regular season appearances.

Waived by Tennessee

The Titans waived Woodside on Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Analysis: Woodside was severely outmatched during his competition with Malik Willis for the top backup spot behind Ryan Tannehill, so it isn't surprising to see Woodside let go. The 2018 seventh-round pick has only thrown one pass across 11 regular season appearances.

Agrees to one-year deal

Woodside has signed a one-year contract to remain with the Titans.

Analysis: Prior to re-upping with the team, the QB had been scheduled to become an exclusive rights free agent next week. Now that he's back in the fold for 2022, Woodside is slated to reprise his role as starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill's top backup.

Returns from COVID list

Woodside was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Analysis: Woodside should return to work as Ryan Tannehill's backup now that he's active again. With the Titans on a bye week, Woodside won't return to the sideline on game day until Week 14 against Jacksonville.

Dec 4, 2021 4:30 PM EST


Placed on COVID list

Woodside (undisclosed) has been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Analysis: As a result, Woodside's Week 12 status has yet to be determined, but if he's unavailable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, fellow QB Kevin Hogan could be promoted from Titans' practice squad to serve as Ryan Tannehill's backup this weekend.

Leads touchdown drive

Woodside completed 10 of his 15 pass attempts for 84 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in the Titans' preseason opener against the Falcons.

Analysis: Woodside drew the start, as the team opted to sit Ryan Tannehill. He played the entire first half and led drives 34 and 35 yards that resulted in 10 points. His lone touchdown came on a back shoulder pass to Cameron Batson from 15 yards away. Woodside appears to be leading the competition for the backup quarterback job with Matt Barkley, and he didn't do anything to harm his chances with this performance.

Draws Friday start

Woodside is slated to start Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons, Jim Wyatt of the Titans official site reports.

Analysis: Top QB Ryan Tannehill won't play in the contest, so Woodside -- who remains the favorite to serve as the team's No. 2 option at the position -- will get the starting nod Friday and is expected to play at least until halftime. Once he's lifted, Matt Barkley will take over and finish the the game under center for the Titans.

Aug 13, 2021 1:08 PM EST


Set for preseason competition

Coach Mike Vrabel said Tuesday that both Woodside and DeShone Kizer will see playing time during the preseason, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Analysis: Woodside served as the primary backup to Ryan Tannehill in 2020, but new teammate Kizer reportedly impressed during minicamp and could offer strong competition for the No. 2 gig. Through six appearances last season, Woodside only had three pass attempts, with one seven-yard completion. However, he did have seven carries for 10 yards.

Wins backup job

Woodside officially won the backup quarterback job after the team cut Trevor Siemian, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.

Analysis: Woodside's steady performance throughout training camp impressed the team enough to stick on the roster. A former seventh-round pick, this is the first time Woodside has been on an active NFL roster. Siemian is a candidate to join the team's practice squad.

Favored to win backup job

Woodside has the "inside track" to the backup quarterback job in Tennessee, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Selected by Cincinnati in the seventh round of the 2018 draft, Woodside failed to make the Bengals' roster but quickly resurfaced on the Titans' practice squad. He then moved to the short-lived AAF, where he completed 58.3 percent of his passes for 7.0 YPA (with seven TDs and seven INTs) for the San Antonio franchise. Woodside re-signed with Tennessee last summer and played well in the preseason (7.1 YPA, four TDs, zero TDs), earning a spot on the practice squad before an arm injury sent him to injured reserve. He's now healthy for 2020 training camp, poised to compete with rookie seventh-round pick Cole McDonald for the right to serve as Ryan Tannehill's backup. The Titans' decision not to sign a veteran QB might be interpreted as a sign of confidence in Woodside, who reportedly remained heavily involved with the team while he was on IR last season.

Inks reserve/future deal

Woodside (undisclosed) signed a reserve/future contract with the Titans on Monday.

Analysis: Woodside spent time on Tennessee's practice squad during the 2019 season, though he was placed on the unit's injured list early September due to an undisclosed issue. The 2018 seventh-round pick is a developmental project, and he'll remain with the Titans to start the offseason.

Jan 20, 2020 7:12 PM EST


Practice squad injured list

The Titans placed Woodside on their practice squad injured list Thursday, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.

Analysis: It remains to be seen what sort of injury Woodside is dealing with. Barring an injury settlement, the 2018 seventh-round pick's designation will likely prevent him the opportunity of being promoted to Tennessee's 53-man roster at any point in 2019.

Sep 12, 2019 2:13 PM EST


Latches onto practice squad

The Titans signed Woodside to their practice squad Sunday, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Analysis: Woodside spent training camp as the team's third quarterback, and put together a fairly impressive resume across the team's four preseason contests. Despite connecting on just four of 13 pass attempts in the team's second exhibition, he completed 60.5 percent of his passes and averaged 7.1 yards per attempt overall. The Titans elected to keep only Marcus Mariota and Ryan Tannehill on their active roster, so if either one suffers an injury, Woodside could find himself locked into the backup role.

Sep 1, 2019 9:19 PM EST


Reunites with Titans

Woodside signed a contract with the Titans on Monday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Woodside spent three weeks on Tennessee's practice squad last season, and most recently played for the San Antonio Commanders in the AAF while throwing for 1,385 yards and seven touchdowns across eight games. Now back with the Titans, Woodside will work to carve out a reserve role behind Marcus Mariota (neck) and Ryan Tannehill.

Apr 8, 2019 2:52 PM EST


Signs to Titans' practice squad

Woodside signed to the Titans' practice squad Monday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: A seventh-round selection by the Bengals in April's draft, Woodside couldn't beat out Jeff Driskel for the backup role. He'll now spend the season refining his craft, learning from veterans Marcus Mariota and Blaine Gabbert.
