A recent acquisition by the Tennessee Titans this offseason is set to retire at 25 without playing a regular-season snap for the team. The Titans had disappointing news for the offense last week when reports came out that wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins would be out for several weeks with an injury.
Now they’ll be without a player who was trending toward being their starting offensive guard.

“Charles, who missed a number of practice recently for what Coach Brian Callahan called personal reasons, informed the team is walking away from the game.
Charles appeared as the starter at right guard on the team’s first unofficial depth chart released on Monday. He worked with the first team during the early stages of training camp after joining the team earlier this offseason.
On the depth chart that was released on Monday, Dillon Radunz appeared as the back-up at right guard behind Charles, with LaChavious Simmons listed third at right guard.
The Titans listed Daniel Brunskill, last year’s starting right guard, at center on the initial depth chart. He could move into the right guard competition.”
Charles was drafted by the Washington Commanders in 2020
