After nine years with the Tennessee Titans, offensive tackle Taylor Lewan's time with the team is coming to an end with the franchise cutting him.

11 pick in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft, the same pick they used to select Lewan in 2014. With Lewan injured in 2022, the Titans offensive line regressed to one of the league's worst units. Lewan is one of the most decorated Titans in recent memory. The Titans' first-round pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, Lewan made three Pro Bowls from 2016-18 and anchored a Titans offensive line that paved the way for the Titans to finish top five in the NFL in rushing four times in his career. "I hope I did enough to create something all the Titan fans can be proud of," Lewan said in a tweet. This news didn't come as much of a shock to Lewan, who outright said he expected to be cut multiple times on his podcast and in media appearances throughout the fall and winter.

"To me, honestly, I never thought anything of it because I know I'm not a right tackle," Lewan said, via The Tennessean. I knew I was the left tackle for this team and I knew once I had the opportunity to talk to Mr. At the moment, I would shy away from the deal if it doesn't fit the circumstances, but it would be a low-risk, solid-reward deal for the 49ers if Lewan does take a cheaper contract that provides the team with a body at a position that they need depth at. Still, that is dependent on an extremely cheap deal to provide the 49ers flexibility with an injury-prone player, and it's unclear whether Lewan would choose a position change if he continues playing in the NFL.

There are injury concerns with both players, so neither is a lock to suit up for all 17 games. Obviously, the Rams weren’t the only team Lewan mentioned, but it’s certainly worth noting that he did have them on his list of hypothetical landing spots. If they choose the latter, Taylor Lewan could be an option. They could probably even get his cap hit below Noteboom’s $15.5 million cap charge in 2023. He continued: “I think LA would be cool because (Neal) ElAttrache is their doctor.

Lewan then responded to a rapid-fire round and hinted it was unlikely he would join the Atlanta Falcons or Arizona Cardinals while noting the San Francisco 49ers already have a “stud” at left tackle in Trent Williams. Lewan, though, stressed his first priority would be to get back to full health. The nine-year offensive tackle clearly is appreciative of his time in Tennessee, but he’s nevertheless looking forward to seeing what opportunities might come along once he’s able to get back to full health.
