Defensive lineman had altercation with JC Latham Titans do not confirm or deny reports around firearm Jordan Elliott, the defensive lineman released on Tuesday by the Tennessee Titans, reportedly went to his car to retrieve a gun after an altercation in practice last Thursday.
Ordered to leave the field after a scuffle with right tackle JC Latham, Elliott took off his pads, left the facility and went to the players’ lot where security cameras captured the scene, according to multiple reports from A to Z Sports and KPRC2.
Defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers reportedly talked Elliott down and no one was hurt.
Elliott did not practice Friday due to “personal reasons” and was inactive for Sunday’s 26-20 win against the Indianapolis Colts.
After reviewing the footage, the Titans opted to release the 28-year-old, who had signed a two-year, $8m deal during the offseason.
“On Thursday 15 October, there was an incident at our team facility involving Jordan Elliott,” the Titans said in a statement.
“Following our review of the incident, we have made the decision to release Elliott from our roster.
We will have no further comment on the matter.“ Elliott appeared in the first five games of the season for the Titans.
He has also played for the Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers since the Browns picked him in the third round of the 2020 draft.
