Does anyone know what happened with Alontae Taylor?

Elliott's surprising release is not the only strange occurrence the Titans are dealing with, as the team also made starting cornerback and $58 million free-agent addition Alontae Taylor inactive in Week 6.
They didn't just bench him; they took his uniform away. It was described as a coach's decision, and Saleh has refused to elaborate on the situation.
"We'll discuss it as a staff and make a decision that is best for the team moving forward," Saleh told reporters on Monday.

Looks like he wasn’t a big loss in the end. Oh well.

I think they were trying to play him outside and he was garbage there as we knew

He was mostly a nickel here and did have some struggles. I assume titans made him a number 1? He’s not good enough for that. I’d trust Koolaid more as a 1 than AT.

Also titans sub is speculating it's related to Jordan Elliott's release for an "incident". Someone said they took Taylor's uniform in there

He’s a poor fit for Saleh’s defense. They want him to play in space on the outside which is the opposite of how we used him.
They’re paying him 50 million guaranteed and he’s 101 out of 104 on PFF.

Taylor needs to be at nickel or safety.
Personally think he has potential at safety.

Maybe for a ham sammi he comes back lol
Why they are playing him out of position is crazy.

They paid him too much and wanted him to be a boundary corner and he isn't. He sucks there
He is best suited as a big nickel

Sounds like no one wants to trade for him either

If the Titans were to inexplicably release him, I'd take him in a heartbeat.

No one wants to take on a $20.5M fully guaranteed salary for a guy that historically struggled on the outside.
You'd also have to be willing to pay him $14.5M in 2028, or you'd be trading for a 1 year rental

Agreed. But every time I mention moving him to safety I get throughly downvoted.

product of DA's scheme. He won the bears' game last week sending crazy corner blitzes. not to say he isn't talented, but he'd whiff on plays going for big hits all the time.
supposedly the titans have an elite nickle already and that puts him out of a job

They realized he was trash and benched him. Whoever thought guys like him are anything but nickel corners are insane. We have one in Kool-aid too.
