Who Should I Start? Tay Martin or Ricky White III

Thursday, May 8, 1:29 PM

After re-signing defensive lineman James Lynch on Wednesday, the Tennessee Titans waived wide receiver Tay Martin (undisclosed) and linebacker Kyron Johnson (undisclosed) with undisclosed injury designations. The 27-year-old Martin, a former undrafted free agent out of Oklahoma State, spent most of his time on the team's practice squad in 2024 and caught his first career pass on two targets for a 49-yard touchdown in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Houston Texans. Johnson, 26, was originally a sixth-round selection (181st overall) by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2022 out of Kansas. He did not play in a game last year with Tennessee and had just eight tackles (six solo) in 22 games (no starts) in his two seasons with the Eagles.

The Seattle Seahawks released seventh-round rookie wide receiver Ricky White III from their active roster, but White III has re-signed with the team on a practice squad contract. The 23-year-old played one year in college at Michigan State before transferring to UNLV, where he recorded 218 catches for 3,336 yards and 24 touchdowns across three seasons. White III struggled to make much of an impact in preseason play for Seattle, hauling in three passes for 40 yards in three exhibition games. The Seahawks don't have a ton of proven depth in their receiver room behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. White III could conceivably work his way onto the active roster at some point in 2025, but he remains a long way off from fantasy relevance.
