Instead, Lewan said the team left some of their belongings in garbage bags.
«Shout out to the @Titans who dropped off my stuff today. They even let me keep the shoulder pads,» Lewan tweeted Monday with a greeting emoji.
It was a difficult season for Lewan, who played just two games after suffering a knee injury in week 2. He also played just five games in 2020 after suffering an ACL tear.

Lewan said before his release that he would consider retiring if he was released, but on a recent episode of his podcast, he acknowledged that the Cincinnati Bengals «he needs a left tackle.«
He also noted that he wouldn’t be playing for division rival Tennessee, so the Colts, Jaguars and Texans are all out.
Lewan was the 11th pick in the 2014 NFL Draft out of Michigan by the Titans.
