News on former Tennessee Titans WR Taywan Taylor.

This time last year the Tennessee Titans were coming off of a win against the Philadelphia Eagles where Taywan Taylor looked primed for a prime spot as the team’s WR2.

Right now though, it seems like the former 3rd round pick by Tennessee is set to be released.

You may remember the slight drama when the Tennessee Titans traded him to the Cleveland Browns the same week that they were going to match up in Week 1.

People were making jokes about how that trade would give the Browns an even bigger edge, thinking that Taylor was going to leak secrets about the offense that hurt Tennessee.

Also people kept saying that the offensive mastermind Freddie Kitchens would scheme up a play specifically to get Taylor involved on a deep route.

Instead, Taywan Taylor was inactive and his former team won by 30.

Since then Taylor has been a non-factor for the Browns despite them being convinced that they liked him enough to spend a 7th round pick on him.

With Taylor out, there have been talks about the Titans maybe bringing Taylor back into the fold?

I can’t see that happening, not because there is any animosity between the two parties but because Tennessee already have too many mouths to feed on offense.

You have the star duo of Corey Davis and A.J. Brown who had a big day Sunday, but the team’s leading receiver from Week 3 was Adam Humphries while Tennessee’s leader in targets before Week 4 was Delanie Walker.

With so many players already being worked into the offense, are the Titans going to cut a depth player or a special teams guy to have Taywan Taylor on the active roster? I just can’t see that happening.

What is a little bit scary is the idea of him going to Indianapolis where the Colts have a completely depleted group of WRs and a banged up T.Y. Hilton.

If anyone could get blood from a stone it is that coaching staff, so I am a little bit interested to see if a deal materializes there for the former Browns WR.
