The Tennessee Titans are having some difficulty with one of their big free agent signings.
Linebacker Vic Beasley missed coronavirus testing on Wednesday, marking the second day in a row he did not get tested. According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, Beasley has not been in communication with the Titans.
#Titans veteran pass-rusher Vic Beasley did not show up for COVID-19 testing again today, and there has been no communication on why or where he is, per sources. The team put Beasley — one of its big FA signings — on the "reserve/did not report” list yesterday.

Beasley was signed to a one-year, $9.5 million deal in March. He had eight sacks last season for Atlanta and 15.5 as a rookie in 2015. The Falcons reportedly viewed him as a situational pass-rusher and had difficulty when trying to trade him.
The former first-round pick was placed on the reserve/did not report list after missing testing on Tuesday.
NFL players have less than a week left to notify their teams (Aug. 3 deadline) whether they choose not to play in 2020 due to the coronavirus.
