Overview
- The Tennessee Titans announced they released defensive tackle Jordan Elliott after an unspecified "incident at our team facility" and gave no further details.
- Elliott had signed a two-year, $8 million deal in the offseason and appeared in five of the team's first six games this year.
- The 2020 third-round pick recorded 11 combined tackles this season and did not play in the Week 6 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
- Elliott's departure moves depth on the interior defensive line and is expected to increase playing time for second-year tackle Nazir Stackhouse.
- The team’s refusal to disclose specifics has prompted questions about how coach Robert Saleh and GM Mike Borgonzi are handling discipline and transparency, and reporters will watch for any official explanation or investigation.
