Wide receiver Tyler Lockett asked for his release from Tennessee, which the Titans granted on Monday, per multiple reports.
ESPN noted that Lockett was expected to become free to sign with another team Wednesday evening.
Lockett, 33, was an offseason signing for the Titans (one-year, $4 million deal) and has been largely unproductive, grabbing just 10 receptions for 70 yards over seven games (one start).
His most notable play this season was a fumble recovery for a touchdown late in the Titans’ comeback victory against the Arizona Cardinals, their only win of the season.
Lockett was an All-Pro and Pro Bowler over a prolific decade with the Seattle Seahawks, posting at least 40 catches in every season to go along with four seasons of 1,000-plus yards.
In addition to Seattle, Lockett has connections with the Las Vegas Raiders, where his former coach (Pete Carroll) and former quarterback (Geno Smith) reside. His former receiving partner in Seattle, D.K. Metcalf, now plays for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
