L'Jarius Sneed: Everything you need to know

Sneed (quadriceps) is slated to sign with the Chiefs, per NFL reporter Jordan Schultz. Sneed was dealt from the Chiefs to the Titans in March of 2024, but after two seasons in Tennessee, he's decided to return to Kansas City. The 29-year-old struggled with injuries during his time with the Titans, appearing in just 12 of a possible 34 regular-season games. Most recently, Sneed missed Tennessee's final 10 contests in 2025 due to a quadriceps injury. However, his intention to sign with the Chiefs suggests he's moved past that issue. With Jaylen Watson and Trent McDuffie both joining the Rams this offseason, Sneed will likely step in and operate as one of Kansas City's top boundary corners during the 2026 season.

Sneed (quadriceps) was released by the Titans on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Despite signing a four-year, $76.4 million deal with the Titans in March of 2024, Sneed has been dropped after spending just two seasons with the team. During his two years in Tennessee, the 29-year-old appeared in just 12 games, tallying 49 total tackles and three passes defensed. Despite his underwhelming stint with the Titans, Sneed was one of the NFL's top cornerbacks in 2023, recording 14 passes defensed, including two interceptions, while allowing just a 56.2 passer rating when targeted across 16 regular-season games with the Chiefs. At the scouting combine, Titans' general manager Mike Borgonzi told reporters Sneed was undergoing rehab on a quadriceps injury that held him out of the team's final 10 games last season. Once fully healthy, Sneed is expected to draw interest from teams in need of secondary help ahead of the 2026 season.

Sneed (quadriceps) recorded 26 tackles (18 solo) with three passes defensed across seven games in 2025. Sneed was expected to become a key part of Tennessee's defense when he signed a four-year, $76.4 million contract ahead of the 2024 season. Instead, he's combined to appear in only 12 games across two campaigns while failing to record an interception. Sneed missed the Titans' last 10 games of 2025 with a quad injury, and he's very likely to be cut before the new league year.
