.Titans first-round draftee Isaiah Wilson has been placed on the COVID-19/reserve list, meaning he either tested positive or came in close contact with someone who did.
NASHVILLE — The Tennessee Titans are trickling into the team’s headquarters for a training camp with their first-round draft pickCoach Mike Vrabel said Tuesday that Wilson, the lone unsigned member of the Titans’ six-man draft class, has been placed on the list. That means Wilson, the No. 29 draft pick overall out of Georgia, either tested positive or came in close contact with someone who did.
“We’re going to navigate through a pandemic the likes of which that we’ve never seen or experienced,” Vrabel said. “So those are all going to still happen through training camp. But now we’re going to have to manage a disease that’s ravaging across the country as we enter into training camp.” Wide receiver Corey Davis, the fifth overall pick in 2017 in the final year of his rookie deal, and linebacker Jayon Brown will start camp on the physically unable to perform list. Undrafted rookie free agent Anthony McKinney, an offensive lineman from TCU, told Vrabel and general manager Jon Robinson that he had decided to opt out of playing.
Vrabel also did not have any update on the Titans’ interest in Jadeveon Clowney, though he was asked twice about the free agent linebacker. Vrabel said that he didn’t think Clowney was scheduled for a flight to Nashville to meet with team doctors as he spoke to reporters on a video conference call.
