Tennessee Titans cut DL Jordan Elliott after he allegedly brought a gun to team facility

The Tennessee Titans cut defensive lineman Jordan Elliott after he took a gun to the team’s training facility in a “terrible lapse of judgment,” officials said Wednesday. Titans coach Robert Saleh defended Elliott and called him “a good man” who deserves another chance — just not in Tennessee. “He’s a good man [who] had a terrible lapse in judgment that I recognize as a call for help more than a criminal act,” Saleh told reporters. “It’s unfortunate the way it went down.” Union officials and Elliott’s agent could not immediately be reached for comment Wednesday. It wasn’t immediately clear what might have prompted Elliott to take a firearm to the team’s Nashville headquarters. Nashville police were not called and did not respond to the scene, the police department said Wednesday.
