The Tennessee Titans announced a pair of roster moves with their outside linebackers on Tuesday.
According to Jim Wyatt of Titans Online, Vic Beasley was placed on the Non-Football Injury list (NFI), while Reggie Gilbert was waived with an injury designation.
It isn’t clear what injury Beasley is dealing with, but his failing a physical is yet another setback for one of the Titans’ biggest offseason acquisitions. Of course, Beasley also reported late to training camp, which started his Titans tenure off on the wrong foot.
Once Beasley passes his physical, he can be activated off the NFI list.
Gilbert, who was acquired in a trade with the Green Bay Packers last year for a 2019 sixth-round pick, played in 11 games (five starts) for the Titans last season. No details were given about what injury he’s dealing with, either.
Gilbert figured to have a shot to make the team’s initial 53-man roster out of training camp, although he faced stiff competition for a roster spot and snaps from guys like Derick Roberson and D’Andre Walker.
