Titans Release C Lloyd Cushenberry III with Failed Physical Designation
The Titans cut starting center Lloyd Cushenberry after a failed physical and released safety Xavier Woods following an injury-affected season, altering the team's offseason roster.
- On Wednesday, the Tennessee Titans released starting center Lloyd Cushenberry III with a failed physical designation and veteran safety Xavier Woods in one of two roster moves.
- Coming into the offseason, Cushenberry had a torn Achilles in Week 9 of 2024, shoulder surgery, and was entering the third year of a four-year, $50 million contract signed in 2024.
- Before his Achilles injury, Cushenberry posted an 89% pass-block win rate and appeared in 23 games over two seasons, while Woods recorded 39 tackles, one sack and two interceptions last season.
- The moves force the Tennessee Titans to find a new starting center this offseason, while second-year safety Kevin Winston Jr. will start alongside veteran safety Amani Hooker.
- With the center market heating up, Eric DeCosta has made a 'market-setting' offer to Tyler Linderbaum, while the Las Vegas Raiders may see Lloyd Cushenberry III as a backup plan.
