The Titans will not exercise QB Jake Locker's club option for 2015.
As expected. The Titans are putting Locker on the clock with one year left on his rookie deal. It's a make-or-break year for Locker, who is coming off Lisfranc surgery. If the team had picked up the option, Locker would have been scheduled to earn a $14.6 million base salary in 2015. But he could have been released without any penalty. Locker was playing the best football of his young career before getting hurt last season. The new staff isn't believed to be particularly high on Locker long-term, and this essentially confirms it.
