NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans are not picking up the fifth-year option on linebacker Rashaan Evans.
Evans' agent Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN's Adam Schefter the team declined his client's option "due to ongoing salary-cap uncertainty and instead hope to sign Rashaan to a contract extension before his current deal expires in 2022."
The Titans selected Evans with the 22nd overall pick in the 2018 draft. He started his first game in Week 3 of the 2018 season and finished the year with 53 tackles.
His best season came in his second year when he led the Titans with 111 tackles to go along with 2.
