4 Contenders Could Fight Over Released 73-Game Starter

The Kyzir White Era in Tennessee is over before it ever truly began, as the linebacker requested his release, and the team granted his request. Signed to a one-year deal in the offseason, the former fourth-round pick spent most of the season battling a hamstring injury. To date, he has appeared in just one game in 2025, recording three tackles and no other statistics. Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports that the linebacker is finally healthy and, rather than join a one-win Titans team on a collision course with the first-overall pick, the linebacker will attempt to join a contender.

Edit: Contrary to the Jordan Schultz report, Kyzir White will remain with the Tennessee Titans
