Titans' Austin Davis: Signs with Titans
Austin Davis signed a contract with the Tennessee Titans on Monday, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.Davis' signing comes on the heels of Marcus Mariota's (elbow) injury. If Mariota is held out of the team's Week 17 matchup with the Colts, Davis will operate as the backup to Blaine Gabbert. Davis won't figure to see the field unless the team takes further losses at quarterback.

Austin Davis: Released by Tennessee
The Titans released Austin Davis on Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.With Marcus Mariota now reasonably healthy after contending with an elbow injury and Blaine Gabbert having cleared the concussion protocol, there was no longer a need for the Titans to keep Davis around as a third-string quarterback. The 29-year-old didn't earn any snaps during his stint with Tennessee, which lasted just two weeks.

Titans' Austin Davis: In line to back up Marcus Mariota
Austin Davis will be the backup option for starter Marcus Mariota (elbow) Sunday against the Eagles, as Blaine Gabbert (concussion) is listed as inactive for the contest.Davis signed with Tennessee just five days earlier, but he'll get thrown into the mix as an emergency quarterback option Sunday. While Marcus Mariota has been deemed healthy enough to start despite an elbow injury, he's been unable to shed his injury-prone label to date, and any type of setback would likely lead to Davis seeing game action.

Titans' Austin Davis: Joins Tennessee
Austin Davis agreed to a contract Tuesday with the Tennessee Titans, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Davis' addition gives the Titans some much-needed depth at quarterback with Marcus Mariota still limited by an elbow injury and Blaine Gabbert embedded in the NFL's concussion protocol. Since Mariota was able to finish the Titans' Week 3 upset win over the Jaguars, he seems on track to be available Sunday against the Eagles, but he hasn't started either of the past two weeks due to the complications his elbow presents when he throws. With that in mind, Davis could very well end up seeing snaps versus Philadelphia in the event Gabbert isn't available. Davis spent the 2017 season in Seattle as the backup to Russell Wilson, but only logged five offensive snaps throughout the campaign.

Seahawks' Austin Davis: Likely to be cut
Austin Davis is likely to be released after the Seattle Seahawks traded for Brett Hundley on Wednesday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.Apparently displeased with the backup quarterback competition between Davis and rookie seventh-round pick Alex McGough, the Seahawks traded for Hundley one day before its final preseason game. With McGough a better bet to land on the practice squad, Davis may find himself out of a job by Week 1. There is some chance Seattle could keep three quarterbacks on the roster early in the season while Hundley gets up to speed with the playbook.

Seahawks' Austin Davis: Makes little impact Friday
Austin Davis completed two of three passes for minus-1 yard during Friday's 21-20 preseason loss to the Vikings.QB Alex McGough, who is competing with Davis for the backup job, produced a dud as well, completing five of 14 passes for 140 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Neither signal caller has looked good through the first three preseason games, and if that carries into the final exhibition game the Seattle Seahawks may ponder free-agent options.

Seahawks' Austin Davis: Vying for primary backup spot
Austin Davis will compete with Alex McGough for the Seattle Seahawks' backup quarterback job during training camp, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.Davis has experience and incumbent status on his side in the job battle, likely conferring him the early advantage heading into training camp. Despite his undersized stature, Russell Wilson has yet to miss a game in his NFL career, which may embolden the Seahawks to keep only two quarterbacks on the roster when the season begins. Davis ended up appearing in three contests in 2017, but played just five offensive snaps.
