Skrine (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. The designation came as a result of a positive test, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Skrine joined the Titans on Nov. 23 and has been a consistent presence in the secondary, having played no less than 98 percent of the defensive snaps in any of their last three contests. He'll try to clear protocols in time for Sunday, when Tennessee hosts the Dolphins.

Skrine was cut from the practice squad Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Skrine had only been with the 49ers for a couple of weeks. The 11-year vet was active Week 4, but he only played three special-teams snaps. Skrine was a regular in the Bears' defense the last two seasons and now will look to potentially continue his career elsewhere. In a corresponding move, San Francisco activated cornerback Davontae Harris from IR.

Skrine signed with the 49ers on Tuesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports. Injuries are stacking up in the 49ers' secondary. Jason Verrett tore his ACL in Week 1. K'Waun Williams (calf) is expected to miss a few weeks. And Josh Norman is dealing with a lung contusion. Skrine, 32, averaged 46.3 defensive snaps across 12 games for the Bears last season, so he'll add dependable depth while the Niners heal.

Skrine (concussion) has been released by the Bears, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Skrine was entering the final year of his contract with Chicago, but it ultimately has opted to go in a different direction. He recorded 112 tackles (89 solo) and three passes defensed during his two-year stint with the team. Besides the Bears, the 31-year-old has spent time with the Browns and Jets during his time in the league. He now will look for a new opportunity.

Skrine (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Vikings. Skrine didn't practice all week and will miss a second consecutive game. The Bears could be without two of their top three cornerbacks if Jaylon Johnson -- who didn't practice all week and is considered questionable with a shoulder injury -- is also ruled out. Skrine will aim to progress through the league's concussion protocol before the Week 16 matchup against the Jaguars.
