One of the many issues former Tennessee Titans 2020 first-round pick and offensive lineman Isaiah Wilson had while in Nashville was his not being in shape — and it’s an issue he’s currently having with the New York Giants.
Despite proclaiming himself a changed man in an Instagram post days before signing to the Giants’ practice squad, Wilson is still not in shape, which is a bad start for the second chance he asked for.
According to The Athletic’s Dan Duggan, Giants offensive line coach Rob Sale said that the team can’t evaluate Wilson properly until he gets in shape, an ominous sign for what is his third different stint in the NFL.

After having a disastrous rookie campaign with the Titans that saw many issues, both on and off the field, Wilson was traded to the Miami Dolphins in March, but his stay in South Beach lasted just days before he was cut.
We don’t want to cast a final judgement in this particular situation, but clearly it isn’t looking good for Wilson in New York, either.
However, at least the Giants aren’t depending on Wilson to be a long-term solution by any means, which, unfortunately for the Titans, was the case.
