Titans show faith in Jarvis Brownlee Jr. following Chido Awuzie release

The Tennessee Titans made the borderline surprising decision to release cornerback Chido Awuzie from his contract earlier this week. Awuzie was signed by previous general manager Ran Carthon to a three-year, $36 million deal just last offseason. His departure catapults sophomore cornerback Jarvis Brownlee Jr. into a full-time boundary role opposite L’Jarius Sneed.

The Titans did not designate Awuzie as a post-June release, per Paul Kuharsky. They’ve elected to absorb the full $12.5 million in 2025 dead cap. After trading linebacker Kenneth Murray, new GM Mike Borgonzi is quickly ridding the Titans of last offseason’s mistakes.
