NASHVILLE, Tennessee – Almost a week after being warned by the team’s general manager, Tennessee Titans 2020, chosen in the first round of the NFL, Isaiah Wilson wrote on Twitter Monday night that “ended football like a Titan” before deleting the tweet right after.
Wilson was the 29th overall selection in the April draft, but played only four snaps in his debut season, which culminated in him being placed on the non-football injury list in December. Before that, Wilson found himself on the reserve / COVID-19 list twice last year, during the training camp and in October.
The rookie right also had some disagreements with the law. The first incident happened when Tennessee State University police interrupted an off-campus party that Wilson had attended during the training camp. In their report, the police documented that Wilson went to the second-floor balcony, where he seemed to briefly think about jumping. He received an invasion notice.
The second incident occurred when Wilson was arrested and charged with DUI in September, when he lost control of his vehicle and hit a concrete wall.
GM Jon Robinson of the Titans spoke about Wilson’s status during a virtual press conference on Tuesday, telling reporters that he had not spoken to Wilson since he put him on the NFI list and suggesting that Wilson “makes a decision about whether he wants to do whatever it takes to be a football professional. “
The Titans signed a $ 11.6 million four-year contract with Wilson in August. Tennessee would have a $ 5.4 million wage cap charge if it released it.
Wilson’s agency did not respond to a request for comment when contacted by ESPN late on Monday.
