The Tennessee Titans can't seem to get rid of wide receiver Mason Kinsey, and Mason Kinsey can't seem to get rid of the Tennessee Titans.
The former undrafted free agent signing was cut as part of the team's attempt to get the roster down to 53 players. However, Kinsey will return to the Titans for a fifth season after being added to the practice squad.
Aware of the situation, the 26-year-old took to Twitter/X to post a hilarious response using a meme that has frequently popped up as Kinsey keeps finding his way back to the Titans:

Kinsey looked like he might sneak his way onto the 53-man roster to begin the season, following a strong showing in offseason workouts and the early part of training camp. However, the Titans' wide receiver room, which saw the additions of Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd, became cutthroat for competition.
Kinsey suffered a broken pinkie in the Titans' preseason Week 2 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, and his participation was limited for the remainder of camp.
As such, 2024 sixth-round pick Jha'Quan Jackson earned the sixth and final wide receiver spot on the roster. However, Kinsey will look to provide value in a practice squad capacity, with the potential of seeing the field later in the season.
The former Division III standout saw the most time of his career in 2023, but in the punt return game. Kinsey returned 11 punts for a combined 100 yards, or an average of 9.1 yards per return, including a long of 26 yards.
