Tennessee Titans released defensive tackle Jordan Elliott after he pulled a gun in the parking lot of the team facility, which coach Robert Saleh called a "terrible lapse in judgment."
Albany Schenectady Troy, NY, October 21, 2026 —
The Tennessee Titans released defensive tackle Jordan Elliott after he pulled a gun in the parking lot of the team facility, according to the information provided about the incident. Coach Robert Saleh described Elliott’s conduct as a “terrible lapse in judgment.”
The account does not specify when the incident occurred or provide further details about what led up to it. It also does not say whether anyone was injured, whether law enforcement was involved, or whether any charges or other legal action followed. The amount of time between the incident and Elliott’s release was not provided.
The available information identifies Elliott as a defensive tackle and says the Titans released him. It does not provide details about his contract, his tenure with the team, or the team’s stated rationale beyond the incident itself. No additional comments from Elliott or other team representatives were included.
Saleh’s quoted characterization is the only statement attributed to a team official in the account. The information does not indicate whether the Titans disclosed any further internal review or disciplinary steps. It also does not establish whether the incident was reported to authorities or whether any findings were made.
Further details about the circumstances surrounding the incident and the release were not provided. The account therefore establishes the reported action by the team and Saleh’s response, while leaving the timing, legal status and other consequences unclear.
