The Tennessee Titans cut punter Reggie Hodges and claimed punter Brett Kern from waivers according to Adam Schefter. Kern has a 46.1-yard gross average (6th in the NFL), and a league high 6 touchbacks, but he ranks 29th in the league with a 34.5-yard net average. Kern also serves as a holder, a necessity after Craig Hentrich's injury.
He was dropped by the Denver Broncos yesterday because they were "unhappy with Kern's inconsistency in directional kicking, plus his tendency to boot long, low-trajectory punts that were ideal for returning" according to The Denver Post.
