Titans’ Vic Beasley finally reports to training camp

After being absent for the first 10 days of training camp, Tennessee Titans outside linebacker Vic Beasley has finally reported.

The news comes from Paul Kuharsky.

Beasley will now have to produce three negative COVID-19 tests in the next four days in order to enter the building and begin taking part in camp.

Because of his unexcused absence, Beasley will have to pay a mandatory fine of $500,000, or $50,000 per day missed. The Titans might be able to go after some of his signing bonus, also, as Jason Fitzgerald of Over the Cap explained.

We still have no idea what caused Beasley to miss so much time. There was some speculation that he might opt out of the 2020 season entirely, but that turned out not to be the case as the deadline to opt out came and went on Thursday.

Even though he has now reported, this situation is far from settled. Beasley is already off to a rough start and will now have to earn the trust of the coaching staff after this mishap.

Tennessee signed Beasley to a one-year, $9.5 million deal earlier this offseason in order to help boost a pass-rush that finished near the middle of the pack in sacks last season.
