Patriots Sign Former Titans TE

In a move ahead of New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel facing off against his former franchise of the Tennessee Titans, the Patriots have signed a former Tennessee player to their club.
The Patriots are signing former Titans tight end Thomas Odukoya to their practice squad. Odukoya, 28, signed with the Titans as an undrafted free agent out of Eastern Michigan following the 2022 NFL Draft. He was waived after his rookie camp and remained on Tennessee’s practice squad before getting waived in Oct., 2025.
He appeared in two games for the Titans in 2024 ahead of his reunion with Vrabel.

The move comes ahead of the previously mentioned Week 7 matchup which sees the Titans hosting the Pats and Vrabal on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. EST.
This will be Vrabel’s first return since being fired by the Tennessee Titans. He was was fired by the Titans in January 2024 after six seasons with the franchise. Vrabel then spent the 2024 season with the Cleveland Browns as a coaching and personnel consultant on Kevin Stefanski’s staff before he was hired by the Patriots as their head coach in Jan., 2025.
Vrabel went 54-45 with three playoff appearances in six seasons with the Titans from 2018 to ’23. His 54 wins are the third most in Tennessee history, and he coached Odukoya during his time with the franchise.
Current Patriots’ quarterback Drake Maye has said the roster is remaining focused on the task at hand ahead of seeing the field against Tennessee.
“The way Coach Vrabel handles [his past with Tennessee] kind of leads into how we’ll handle it,” Maye said of playing against his coach’s former team. “I think he’s focused about this team and not worried about going back to a place he coached for a long time … he’s kind of treating it like it’s not a big deal which has bled into us. We’re treating it like another week, another opponent and going to treat it the same … it’s a challenge for us to go keep proving it week in and week out. That’s been our main focus.”
This latest matchup for the Patriots comes after the Buffalo Bills handed the Patriots the top spot in the AFC East after losing 24-14 to Atlanta.
The last time the Pats held on to first place was late Nov., 2021 after starting out 2-4, the Patriots ripped off seven straight wins from before hitting their bye week.
The Patriots have won three straight with wins over the Carolina Panthers, Buffalo Bills and, most recently, the New Orleans Saints. New England remains the only team in 2025 that has not surrendered 50 yards to a running back through the first six games in 2025 — which is also the very first time this has occurred in program history.
Odukoya spent his college football years with Eastern Michigan and was a three-year captain. The 6’6″, 253-pound player received for four touchdowns and totaled 22 sacks — being invited to the Hula Bowl all-star game at the end of his collegiate career.

‘We’re price takers at the end of the day’: Tennessee farmers grapple with rising costs, falling prices amid tough harvest season

HURRICANE MILLS, Tenn. (WKRN) — On a bright October afternoon, it looks like another steady harvest season in rural Humphreys County. Up close, it tells a different story.
Eric Mayberry farms more than 1,000 acres on the land his family has worked for generations. He’s also president of the Tennessee Farm Bureau Federation, which is the largest in the nation.
You can say he knows the risks of farming better than most.
“It’s a gamble,” Mayberry said. “You put a seed in the ground and hope Mother Nature cooperates and that there’ll be a price high enough to make it worth it. You’ve got to have a leap of faith.”
This year, that leap feels longer.
Mayberry said he’s seeing record corn yields — more than 200 bushels an acre — but even that’s not enough to break even.
“Any other time that would be a somewhat joyous situation,” he said. “But it’s not really this year for us because we have so much money invested in this crop-per-acre that we’re going to break even or maybe even lose money on this farm.”
Across Tennessee, farmers are confronting the same reality: input costs that remain far above pre-pandemic levels and grain prices that continue to slide. Global demand for American crops has softened, and exports have slowed, leaving many with less income heading into winter.
“That’s just hard to absorb,” Mayberry said. “We pay full retail for our inputs and then we’re price-takers at the end of the day.”
He said this is his third year in this exact situation. Only this time, it’s worse.
It’s not just a Tennessee problem. Inflation, trade tensions and now a government shutdown have squeezed producers across the country.

“Generally speaking, if you say tariff to a farmer, he’ll start shaking his head,” Mayberry said. “It is not good in the short term. It may be good in the long term.”
According to the Tennessee Farm Bureau, the state’s agriculture industry has lost an estimated $430 million this year alone and nearly $730 million over the last two years. Many farmers, Mayberry said, are holding off on buying new equipment or delaying repairs.
Still, despite the numbers and the worry, Mayberry isn’t giving up.
“I get frustrated with the political systems sometimes, but if you look around the world at some countries and the things they have to deal with, we’re still very fortunate to be Americans,” he said. “And I sure love being an American farmer.”

Tennessee secondary focused on improvement
There are a ton of different match-ups on the field that could determine the outcome of Saturday’s monster clash between No. 11 Tennessee and No. 6 Alabama, but there’s little doubt which one is the biggest concern for most Vol fans. Can the Vols’ maligned secondary slow down Alabama’s passing attack and Ty Simpson, maybe the hottest quarterback in the SEC.
