Today's Nashville Tennessean has a summary article on the status of borderline players in training camp and says that Breon Borders' stock is "Up":
He has been one of the most consistent Titans throughout training camp.
Big preseason night for Victor Dimukeje with 5 tackles against the Chiefs. Do we dare to start calling him Vickie D, or is that a really, really bad idea?
Deon Jackson had a big game last night in the Colts 27 - 17 win over the Lions:
10 rushes, 81 yards, 1 TD
1 reception, 3 yards, 1 TD
Hopefully his preseason performance was enough to earn him a spot on the 53 man roster but if not there is no doubt he will be on the practice squad earning a paycheck.

Presumably, Deon was running flat out. Which means that the guy who laid the hit on him at the end must be Usain Bolt.
Per this article, Daniel Jones and the starters will play at least one half today against the Patriots:

Only Duke highlight (?) I saw yesterday was Breon Borders of the Titans giving a Bears receiver a WWE-like pile driver. He was properly flagged, but he did show some power in his move.

The Chiefs kept 4 tight ends on their 53 man roster so Noah Gray is "officially" a Chief!

And Breon Borders did in fact make the borderline cut and is on the 53 man roster for the Titans.
Here's a list from "Our Lads." Does it appear accurate?

Didn't we have another TE (Birmingham or Helm, maybe?) who was bouncing around the league for a couple years? He may be out now, but that was the only thing that came to mind.
Last played for the Raiders in 2017. He now runs this non-profit, while possibly occasionally staring at his Super Bowl ring.
