Wesco was released from the Raiders' practice squad Tuesday,
Wesco received an opportunity with Las Vegas on Oct. 22 via its practice unit, but his stay in Sin City will last just short of one month. The journeyman tight end played three seasons with the Jets after being drafted in 2019 before suiting up for the Bears and Titans the last two years. He will now look for a new landing spot and a chance to make his 2024 season debut elsewhere.

Trevon Wesco: Catches on with Las Vegas
Rotowire
The Raiders signed Wesco to the practice squad Tuesday.
Wesco has been without a team all year, but he has a chance to see game-day action with the Raiders after Harrison Bryant suffered an elbow injury during Sunday's game against the Rams. Wesco mostly served in a blocking role with the Titans in 2023, and he finished the year with one catch for 21 yards across 15 regular-season games.

Titans' Trevon Wesco: Returns to full practice Thursday
Rotowire
Wesco (shin) logged a full practice session Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Wesco missed Sunday's loss to Seattle due to a shin injury, and he was a limited participant in the first practice session of Week 17 prep Wednesday. However, the tight end was able to log a full practice session Thursday, putting him on track to suit up in Houston on Sunday. Even if that plays out, Wesco's role as a blocking specialist gives him very limited appeal in fantasy -- he's logged just one catch on three targets over 392 offensive snaps on the season.

Titans' Trevon Wesco: Has chance to play Sunday
Rotowire
Wesco (shin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Wesco sat out the Titans' first two practices of the week before returning to Friday's session in a limited capacity. Kevin Rader could get more snaps as a backup option at tight end behind Chigoziem Okonkwo if Wesco and/or Josh Whyle (knee) are unable to play Sunday.

Rotowire
Wesco (shin) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
It's not clear when Wesco picked up the shin issue or how serious it might be, but his availability for Week 16 is now in doubt. If he can't practice Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss his first game of the season Sunday.

Titans' Trevon Wesco: Goes untargeted Monday
Rotowire
Wesco played 25 of 71 snaps on offense and went without a target in Monday's 28-27 win over the Dolphins.
Wesco techically drew the start Sunday since he was on the field for the Titans' first offensive play, but he still finished a distant second to Chigoziem Okonkwo (48 snaps) in playing time among Tennessee tight ends. The 28-year-old could fall to third in the pecking order at tight end if Josh Whyle (knee) is able to make it back for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Titans' Trevon Wesco: Fails to corral lone target
Rotowire
Wesco played 40 snaps on offense but drew just one catchless target in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Chargers.
Though his 63 percent offensive snap share wasn't far behind that of starting tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo (71 percent), Wesco remained relegated to a blocking role, which has been par for the course since he entered the NFL in 2019. Wesco has ran just six routes on his 63 offensive snaps through the first two weeks of the season.

Titans' Trevon Wesco: Signing with Titans
Rotowire
The Titans have signed Wesco to a one-year deal, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
During the 2022 season, Wesco logged two catches for 26 yards in 14 games with the Bears. Now that he's with the Titans, the 2019 fourth-rounder will add depth to the team's tight end corps, which is currently led by Chigoziem Okonkwo. Given that Wesco has just eight catches over 54 career NFL games, the 27-year-old is off the fantasy radar.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Slated for free agency
Rotowire
Wesco didn't handle an offensive touch in the Bears' 29-13 loss to the Vikings in Week 18, and ended the season with two receptions for 26 yards over 14 games played.
Wesco averaged about 15 snaps per game, but he was targeted four times all year. Primarily a blocker, he has eight receptions over his four-year career, and he hasn't had more than three catches in any season. He's now an unrestricted free agent.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Ready to go Sunday
Rotowire
Wesco (calf) is active Sunday against the Lions.
Wesco will return to the field after missing the team's previous two games. He should operate as the team's No. 2 tight end and mostly as an extra blocker, behind Cole Kmet.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Could return for Week 17
Rotowire
Wesco (calf) is considered questionable to play Sunday versus the Lions.
Wesco has missed the last two games while nursing a calf injury, but he was able to log limited practices all week, giving him a shot to return in Week 17 against Detroit. The tight end primarily operates as a blocker in the run game, reeling in just two catches for 26 yards on four targets over 12 games this year. If he can't go Sunday, Ryan Griffin would likely continue to operate in Wesco's role.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Won't play vs. Bills
Rotowire
Wesco (calf) is listed as out for Saturday's game versus Buffalo.
Wesco will miss his second consecutive game as he works to recover from a calf injury he sustained in Week 13 versus Green Bay. In his absence, Ryan Griffin should see more snaps as a blocker.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Logs DNP
Rotowire
Wesco (calf) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.
Wesco has been unable to partake in any action since he injured his calf against the Packers back in Week 13, and his estimation as a non-participant during Tuesday's walk-through session doesn't bode well for his chances of suiting up this weekend against the Bills. If the fourth-year pro is unable to gain medical clearance before Saturday's matchup, Ryan Griffin should once again serve as Chicago's No. 2 tight end behind Cole Kmet.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Ruled out
Rotowire
Wesco (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Philadelphia.
Wesco left the Bears' Week 13 loss to Green Bay early with a calf injury and doesn't appear to have made much progress during the team's Week 14 bye. The fourth-year tight end was sidelined for each practice of Week 15 prep and has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup, marking his first absence of the season. In his stead, Ryan Griffin figures to step up as the No. 2 tight end behind Cole Kmet.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Sidelined in practice Thursday
Rotowire
Wesco (calf) was listed as a non-participant on the Bears' injury report Thursday.
Wesco was forced out early with a calf injury and did not return during Week 13's loss to Green Bay. The tight end has now remained sidelined following Chicago's Week 14 bye, so he could be in jeopardy of missing his first game since the season opener against San Francisco. Wesco has caught two of four targets for 26 yards over 12 games while serving as Chicago's No. 2 tight end behind Cole Kmet, so his potential absence would leave Ryan Griffin to step up into a slightly bigger role Sunday against Philadelphia.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Doubtful to return
Rotowire
Wesco (leg) has been downgraded to doubtful to return versus the Packers on Sunday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Wesco was initially deemed questionable to return after being forced out with a leg injury early in the first quarter, and it appears he'll likely remain out for the remainder of the game. The 27-year-old has caught just two of his four passes for 26 yards so far this season, so his absence shouldn't make much of an impact in Chicago's passing game.

Rotowire
Wesco caught a three-yard pass in the Bears' 31-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.
Wesco has two catches on four targets this season, and he isn't a significant part of the Chicago passing attack, making him a player to avoid when setting weekly fantasy lineups.

Bears' Trevon Wesco: Claimed by Bears
Rotowire
Wesco was claimed off waivers by the Bears on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Wesco will join the Bears after he was waived by Jets on Tuesday as a part of the team's final roster cuts. The tight end played in 12 games for the Jets last season, catching three passes for 35 yards. Wesco provides the Bears with another depth option behind starter Cole Kmet in 2022.

Jets' Trevon Wesco: Standing out in offseason practices
Rotowire
Wesco (knee) is healthy and looking good in offseason practices after suffering a season-ending knee injury last year, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Cimini lists Wesco -- along with three other offensive players -- as under-the-radar standouts during practices this offseason. The 2019 fourth-round pick made 12 appearances last season but caught just three passes for 35 yards before suffering the knee injury. The Jets bolstered their tight end corps by signing C.J. Uzomah and Tyler Conklin in free agency and drafting Jeremy Ruckert (foot) in the third round, so despite the positive impression he's making, Wesco will still have an uphill battle for offensive snaps.
