Social media reacts to Titans’ plan to waive Teair Tart

The Tennessee Titans are on the cusp of making a surprising move, with the team set to part ways with defensive lineman Teair Tart.

The Titans haven’t officially made the move just yet, but the decision was first reported by Titans beat writer Paul Kuharsky and has since been confirmed by Tart himself via a post on social media.

Per the report, the Titans were unhappy with Tart’s attitude, effort and overall conditioning, while the Florida International product was unhappy with not getting a contract extension instead of the $4.3 million tender Tennessee placed on him during the offseason.

This situation had been bubbling for a while, with Tart posting some cryptic tweets during the year that seemed to express his displeasure with the situation.

Kuharsky is also reporting that Tart had lost the respect of his teammates and the Titans tried to trade him at the deadline, but to no avail.

Here’s how Titans social media reacted when the news first broke.
