Titans' Raekwon McMillan: Signed to Titans' active roster
The Titans signed McMillan from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
McMillan started the season with the Patriots, registering 45 tackles (25 solo) and one pass defense across nine regular-season games before being waived in early November. He signed with the Titans' practice squad this past Tuesday, and he'll now be on the 53-man roster for the final two games of the regular season. McMillan will provide depth at inside linebacker behind James Williams and Luke Gifford.

Raekwon McMillan: Dropped by New England
The Patriots waived McMillan on Friday.
The move makes room on the 53-man roster for Yannick Ngakoue, who the Patriots claimed off waivers Friday. McMillan has seen his snap count on defense dwindle over the course of the regular season, and through nine games he accumulated 45 tackles (25 solo) and one pass defended. Although a vested veteran, McMillan will land on the waiver wire since he was let go after the Nov. 5 trade deadline. He should draw plenty of interest from teams looking to bolster their linebacker corps.

Patriots' Raekwon McMillan: Logs scoop-and-score TD
McMillan recorded three tackles (two solo) and a fumble recovery for a 23-yard touchdown in Monday's 27-13 victory versus Arizona.
McMillan's first fumble recovery of the season came at the best possible time for New England, as he picked up a scoop-and-score fumble after safety Kyle Dugger stripped Cardinals wideout DeAndre Hopkins in the third quarter. This put the Patriots up 20-13 and helped the team pull away down the stretch of the second half. McMillan's has divided evenly his 392 snaps between defense and special teams this season, and he continued to do so with a 19:16 split Week 15. Expect McMillan to continue slotting in as a consistent rotational player behind inside linebackers Ja'Whaun Bentley and Jahlani Tavai moving forward.
