San Francisco released Dillard (ankle) with an injury settlement Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Dillard had surgery during the offseason to address an ankle issue, but his recovery wasn't going very smoothly, so he was placed on the 49ers' injured-reserve list late in training camp. Now, thanks to the negotiated injury settlement, he won't have to spend the entire 2025 season there and will be free to sign with another team once healthy.

Titans' Andre Dillard: Moving to Tennessee
Rotowire
Dillard agreed to terms with the Titans on Monday, Mike Garofolo of NFL Network reports.
Dillard -- whose deal is reportedly a three-year pact for $29 million -- was a former first-round draft choice of the Eagles in 2019. Although he has starting experience, he fell behind Jordan Mailata at left tackle on Philadelphia's depth chart in 2022. He should take over at left tackle for the Titans, giving them a significant upgrade over Dennis Daley, who finished last season atop the depth chart.
