NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans<\/a> released cornerback L’Jarius Sneed<\/a> on Friday, a move that saves $11.4 million in cap space.<\/p>\n

Sneed struggled to stay on the field for Tennessee, appearing in 12 games over two seasons. He had signed a four-year, $76 million contract after the Titans acquired him in a 2024 trade with the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Titans signed defensive backs Alontae Taylor<\/a>, Cor’Dale Flott<\/a> and Josh Williams<\/a> earlier this week to restock their cornerbacks room.<\/p>\n

Starting the 2025 season on the physically unable to perform list as he recovered from a knee procedure in May and a lingering quad injury, Sneed played seven games last season and finished with 26 tackles and three passes defended. He suffered another quad injury in Week 7 against the New England Patriots<\/a> and missed the final 10 games of the season after going on injured reserve.<\/p>\n

At the scouting combine, Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi said Sneed was undergoing rehab on the quad injury.<\/p>\n

“Frustrating for him,” Borgonzi said. “But he’s continued to work and get himself healthy.”<\/p>\n

Sneed was a two-time Super Bowl champion with the Chiefs, who drafted him in the fourth round in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Turron DavenportMar 13, 2026, 01:55 PM ET CloseTurron Davenport covers the Tennessee Titans for ESPN since 2018.
