The Tennessee Titans are trading one former Seattle Seahawks safety for another, announcing on Friday that they waived veteran Quandre Diggs.
The move comes just two days after the Titans were awarded Jerrick Reed II, a sixth-round selection by the Seahawks back in 2023. Diggs was in the middle of his second season with the Titans, where he appeared in all nine games for the struggling squad this season.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Diggs asked for his release from the Titans, which the team granted.
In his time with Seattle, Diggs anchored the Seahawks’ secondary from 2019 through 2023 on his way to three Pro Bowl selections. He was acquired midway through the 2019 season from the Detroit Lions, racking up three interceptions and 21 tackles in his first five games as a Seahawk.
In his last Pro Bowl season with the Seahawks, Diggs delivered perhaps his most memorable moment with the team. His interception of an underthrown pass by then-Los Angeles Rams quarterback Baker Mayfield sealed an overtime victory that helped the Seahawks to their latest playoff birth in 2022.
Diggs becomes the second former Seahawks star released by the Titans this season, following the team’s release of his best friend, wide receiver Tyler Lockett (now with the Las Vegas Raiders). If Diggs clears waivers, he’ll be a free agent and eligible to sign with any team in the league.
