The Titans weren’t really sure what was wrong with tight end Taylor Thompson, but they cut him anyway.
Of perhaps because of that.
According to Jim Wyatt of the Tennesseean, the Titans waived Thompson Thursday, after a mysterious knee problem kept him out of minicamp, after he had worked through previous sessions with the team.
“To be honest with you, I don’t know what to tell you,’' Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt said prior to the move. “When [Thompson] left here, however many weeks ago, he was healthy. We communicated, he said he was fine, no issues, other than some personal matters. He shows up, says there’s something wrong with his knee, and I have no idea what he is talking about.”
The former fifth-round pick, a converted defensive lineman, caught just 11 passes for the Titans over three seasons.
