The Titans have released DeShone Kizer, according to Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com. This was the expected move after the club signed journeyman Matt Barkley on Thursday afternoon.

Kizer, 25, hasn’t started since his rookie campaign in 2017 — a winless year for the Browns. The Notre Dame product threw for just eleven touchdowns with double the interceptions (22). While the second-rounder showed some exciting flashes on the field, Kizer didn’t exactly inspire confidence on the whole.
Since then, he’s been looking for his next breakout opportunity. Kizer got into three games as the Packers backup in 2018, and he later lingered with the Raiders for about a year. The Titans added him to the taxi squad last fall, but he still hasn’t seen live action since ’18 with Green Bay.
With Kizer out of the picture, Barkley and Logan Woodside will battle for the QB2 job behind Ryan Tannehill.
Never inspired any sort of confidence
Colts?
He gained notoriety in his collegiate career, by beating up on weak Notre Dame opponents. (Unfortunately, that translated to a worthless NFL career…)
He’s made almost four million dollars. I guess it depends on how you want to define “worthless.”
Worthless? He still got a nice signing bonus and will probably get signed again holding a clipboard. Useless career yes! Worthless….not so much… worthlots!
Cowboys need a back up bad. The guys they currently have should only be back up cashiers or dish washers.
Kizer was an odd choice by the Browns in 2017. Going with a free agent journeyman while they continued their rebuilding process would have been a better choice than wasting a 2nd round pick on the fourth best QB in that year’s draft.
Is it better to go with a FA journeyman QB than the 4th QB taken in the draft? I guess we’ll find out by watching the Bears this season.
It depends on whether Kizer is one of the people in your scenario, I guess. Just because one team made a stupid pick does not equate to that player having talent. If that’s the case, explain Mitch Trubisky.
