Titans Release Cornerback Chidobe Awuzie, Freeing Cap Space

News summary

The Tennessee Titans have released cornerback Chidobe Awuzie after just one season with the team, following his signing of a three-year, $36 million contract last year. Awuzie, who struggled with injuries, played only eight games during the 2024 season, recording 26 tackles, an interception, and four passes defensed. His release results in over $12.5 million in dead money on the salary cap, while freeing up approximately $1.7 million in cap space. The decision reflects the Titans' continued roster overhaul as they look to fill the gap at cornerback, with remaining options including Jarvis Brownlee and Roger McCreary. Awuzie's departure marks a shift for the Titans, who had hoped he would bring experience to their defensive backfield under new head coach Brian Callahan. The Titans are expected to seek a replacement for Awuzie through free agency or the upcoming draft.
