The Tennessee Titans have officially parted ways with cornerback Chidobe Awuzie after just one season, marking a surprising end to a three-year contract. Awuzie's tenure was marred by injuries, limiting him to eight games where he managed only 24 tackles, an interception, and a forced fumble. This decision comes just before a significant roster bonus deadline, which would have impacted the team's cap space. With Awuzie's release, the Titans now face a thinner cornerback depth chart, especially as they consider bolstering their defense through free agency or the draft. The move follows the trade of linebacker Kenneth Murray, indicating a broader shift in the team’s roster strategy under former GM Ran Carthon. The Titans will need to address their defensive backfield sooner rather than later as they prepare for the upcoming season.
