(opens the publisher’s site)The Tennessee Titans released defensive lineman Jordan Elliott on Tuesday after he fetched a gun from his car following a practice altercation last Thursday.
- Elliott went to the players' lot to retrieve a gun after a scuffle with right tackle JC Latham forced him off the field, security footage showed.
- Teammate John Franklin-Myers talked Elliott down; no one was hurt.
- Elliott did not practice Friday and was inactive for Sunday's 26-20 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
- The Titans said the release followed a review of the incident and declined further comment.
- Coach Robert Saleh called Elliott's actions a terrible lapse in judgment and a call for help rather than a criminal act.
- Right tackle JC Latham, involved in the altercation, denied any bad blood between the two.
