Irwin, who is nominally Tyler Boyd's backup at slot receiver, now faces competition from rookie wide receivers Charlie Jones and Andre Iosivas heading into training camp, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Jones in particular looms as a threat as a slot receiver, and was essentially drafted to be Boyd's long-term replacement after this season. Irwin was a practice squad player at the beginning of the 2022 season, so his roster slot is hardly secure, even though he turned in 15 receptions for 231 yards and four touchdowns on 23 targets over just 272 snaps on offense in nine games.
