The Tennessee Titans are reportedly set to part ways with wide receiver Julio Jones after one season. The team will release the future Hall of Famer with a post-June 1 designation, which will free up $9.5 million in cap space after that date.
As exciting as the trade for Jones was for Tennessee, the hype didn’t match the results. Jones was plagued by a hamstring injury all season long, and only posted 434 yards and one touchdown in the 10 games he did play.
One person who this move will hit hard is wide receiver A.J. Brown, who has idolized Jones and heavily recruited him to Nashville.
