I wonder why he really quit with 3.5 mil on the table to play one last year, and a family to look out for. 
 

He was ‘okay’ with Wilks and heavy run emphasis.

We ate a good bit of money releasing him.

I do wonder a little what he would have looked like with 150 mil worth of guards flanking him, compared to whoever we had (who were so good I don’t even really remember their names). Probably no worse than Corbett.

During the Shrine Bowl, I mentioned Carolina Panthers lineman Cade Mays as a potential target for the Texans, and he fits the dynamic Caserio is looking for. Mays started at both center and guard for the Panthers, and his free-agent value is expected to be between $5 and $7 million annually.

Lloyd Cushenberry

Titans released C Lloyd Cushenberry.

Cushenberry was one of several marquee signings by the Titans from the 2024 offseason. He landed a four-year, $50 million deal after playing out his rookie deal with the Broncos. Much like most of their other moves from that spending spree, this one failed to pay off. Cushenberry was graded as a bottom-five center by Pro Football Focus in both of his seasons in Tennessee. He should still be able to land a starting job, though his next team will be paying him far less than the Titans did.
