It was just this past Friday that star Tennessee Titans free-agent signing Vic Beasley finally reported for training camp after a lengthy, unexcused absence.
We have no idea what was happening behind the scenes. But there’s some more bad news on this front for the Titans.
Tennessee could not have imagined a worst-case scenario for a player it signed to a one-year, $9.5 million contract this past spring.
The former top-10 pick had an up-and-down five seasons with his original Atlanta Falcons team. Beasley led the NFL with 15.5 sacks as a sophomore in 2016. He tallied 10 sacks the next two seasons combined before returning to form with eight quarterback take downs last year.
Fresh off a surprising appearances in the AFC Championship Game, Tennessee is relying on the Clemson product to provide a consistent pass rush next to youngster Harold Landry.
It’s not looking great with about a month to go before the 2020 NFL season kicks off.
