Avery Williamson Says He Left Tennessee Because of Reduced Role in 2017

Early in the free agency process, the Tennessee Titans were left with a need at inside linebacker due to incumbent started Avery Williamson not being brought back. The Titans reportedly offered Williamson a four-year, $12 million deal. The New York Jets offered him a three-year, $22.5 million contract. To no one’s surprise, Williamson went to the Jets.

Recently, Williamson has talked a bit about his time in Tennessee and he wasn’t particularly fond of how the 2017 season played out for him. From a story by Manish Mehta.

“I don’t know, man,” Williamson said about why his playing time was severely cut last season.
