Titans general manager Jon Robinson speaks to Vic Beasley and says LB will report “in the near future”

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Tennessee Titans general manager Jon Robinson released a statement Thursday saying outside linebacker Vic Beasley will report to training camp soon.

Beasley missed the first two days of camp and did not contact the team. The Titans placed Beasley on the Reserve / Not Reported list Tuesday.

“I have been in contact with Vic, he is not here, he understands that his absence is unjustified and he told me that he will report to the camp in the near future.”

The Titans are conducting coronavirus testing for players before they have access to the facility, as well as informing them about protocols due to the pandemic. The team is working to get newbies and new players acclimatized to their building.

Since he didn’t show up on time, Beasley will be a bit late in the acclimatization process. But Robinson said Beasley will undergo the same acclimatization process when he reports.

Tennessee signed Beasley with a one-year, $ 9.5 million contract in March. Having led the NFL with 15.5 sacks in 2015 and ending last season with eight sacks for the Atlanta Falcons, Beasley was expected to play a critical role in increasing the Titans’ passing career.
