NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans signed OLB Yannik Cudjoe-Virgil from the practice squad and waived WR Rico Richardson.

Cudjoe-Virgil (pronounced YAH-ik KOO-joe VER-jil, 6-2, 248) originally joined the Titans as an undrafted college free agent this past spring. He was injured in the first preseason game against Atlanta and was placed on injured reserve at final cuts. The team and player agreed on an injury settlement shortly after being placed on injured reserve and was re-signed by the team to the practice squad two weeks ago.

In two seasons at the University of Maryland, he totaled 39 tackles, six tackles for loss, five sacks and one interception.
