The Tennessee Titans have suspended offensive tackle and 2020 first-round pick, Isaiah Wilson, for Sunday’s contest versus the Cleveland Browns, the team announced Saturday evening.
Accordingly, the rookie out of the University of Georgia has been placed on the Reserve/Suspended list.
The franchise made a move based on Wilson’s violation of club rules, although it isn’t clear exactly what he did. Whatever the case may be, Wilson’s transgression will be added to a comedy of errors that outline his rookie season.
On July 28th, Wilson was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list for the first time. A couple of weeks later, Tennessee State University police issued Wilson a trespassing warning when he attended an off-campus party that was broken up.
The first few weeks of September weren’t pretty, either, as Wilson was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list for a second time on September 6th, and then on the 11th was charged with a DUI after crashing his vehicle.
Wilson finally saw the field for the first time on November 29th, but he only played four snaps (one on special teams) towards the end of the Titans’ victory in Indianapolis.
Saturday evening, another strike, and Wilson has been suspended. Calling the beginning of his young career a roller-coaster ride would be putting it nicely. Wilson will have some work to do to gain the Titans organization’s confidence, and that of its fanbase moving forward.
The Titans also made a few roster moves Saturday and elevated offensive tackle Marshall Newhouse and linebacker Tuzar Skipper from the practice squad.
