NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Nearly a week after being put on notice by the team's general manager, Tennessee Titans 2020 first-round pick Isaiah Wilson wrote on Twitter Monday night that he is "done with football as a Titan," before deleting the tweet soon after.

Wilson was the 29th overall selection in April's draft, but played only four snaps in his rookie season, which culminated in him being placed on the NFI list in December. Prior to that, Wilson found himself on the reserve/COVID-19 list twice last year, during training camp and once again in October.

The rookie right tackle also had a couple of run-ins with the law. The first incident came when Tennessee State University police broke up an off-campus party that Wilson had attended during training camp. In their report, the police documented that Wilson went to the second-floor balcony, where he appeared to briefly consider jumping. He received a trespass warning.

The second incident occurred when Wilson was arrested and charged with a DUI in September when he lost control of his vehicle and struck a concrete wall.

Titans GM Jon Robinson addressed Wilson's status during a virtual news conference last Tuesday, telling reporters he had not spoken to Wilson since putting him on the NFI list and suggested that Wilson "makes a determination on whether he wants to do what it takes to play pro football."

The Titans signed Wilson to a four-year, $11.6 million contract in August. Tennessee would have a $5.4 million cap charge if it releases him.

Wilson's agency did not respond to a request for comment when contacted by ESPN Monday night.
