Jack Conklin will be moving on from the Tennessee Titans in 2020, as the right tackle has agreed to a three-year deal with the Cleveland Browns.
According to his agent, Conklin’s three-year deal is worth $42 million, with $30 million guaranteed, and the 25-year-old will get $20 million in the first year of the contract.
Shortly after it was announced, Conklin released a statement on Instagram thanking the Titans and their fans.
“Thank you @titans, my teammates, and all the fans for a great 4 years! Couldn’t have asked for a better city to start my career in, I love you guys!”
Apparently, Taylor Lewan was a bit upset to hear Conklin was leaving.
Conklin was the Titans’ No. 8 overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. He hit the open market this offseason after the Titans decided not to pick up his fifth-year option last May.
After being named a First-Team All-Pro in his rookie season, Conklin struggled for the next two seasons, while also dealing with a torn ACL in 2017, and a separate knee issue and concussion in 2018.
With Conklin gone, the Titans will now likely turn to re-signing Dennis Kelly, who filled in for Conklin in 2018 and played well.
