The Titans announced the release of defensive tackle Jordan Elliott on Tuesday.
Elliott played in the first five games of the season, but was inactive last Sunday after missing practice last Friday for what the team called personal reasons. The exact nature of those reasons is not known, but the team's announcement of Elliott's release suggests they are related to the decision to part ways with him.
The Titans say that there was an incident involving Elliott at their facility on October 15 and that they made the decision to release him after an internal review of what happened. The team also says they will not have any further comment on the matter.
Elliott signed a two-year deal with the team as a free agent this offseason. He had 11 tackles for Tennessee and has also played for the 49ers and Browns.
