Reports: Titans release sacks leader Harold Landry III

The Tennessee Titans released outside linebacker Harold Landry III after unsuccessfully shopping their top pass rusher in trade talks.

Landry, 28, was the Titans’ longest-tenured player. Landry would have earned $17.5 million in base salary with a $24.05 million cap hit in 2025.

Tennessee will save $10.9 million in cap space, bypassing a June 1 designation available that would have increased the franchise’s savings to $17.5 million.

A second-round pick in 2018, Landry started all 17 games last season and made 71 tackles with a team-high nine sacks as well as 15 tackles for loss, one safety, 15 quarterback hits and four forced fumbles.

He has 397 career tackles in 98 regular-season games (79 starts) with 50.5 sacks, 70 tackles for loss, 102 QB hits, two interceptions, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.

Landry signed a five-year, $87 million deal in 2022 but tore his ACL in the preseason and missed the entire campaign.

The Titans gave Landry’s agents permission to seek a trade prior to the NFL Scouting Combine last month.
