Former Tennessee Titans defensive lineman Teair Tart has finally found a new home in free agency.
According toĀ Bleacher Reportās Jordan Schultz, Tart is signing with the Miami Dolphins.Ā ESPNās Adam SchefterĀ reveals itās a one-year deal but didnāt disclose the financial terms.
Tart is the second former Titan who is taking his talents to South Beach this offseason after center Aaron BrewerĀ also signed with Miami. They both reunite with former Titans linebacker David Long, also.
Tart was an undrafted free-agent signing of the Titans in 2020 and worked his way into a starting role by 2021, where he proved to be a force in the run game but didnāt offer much as a pass-rusher which,Ā in tandem with conditioning issues, prevented him from getting more snaps.
Things started going off the rails for Tart in 2023 afterĀ he appeared to be unhappyĀ with the fact that he had to play on a one-year tender instead of a long-term contract.
From there, Tart hadĀ attitude and effort issues, which led to the Titans letting him go late in the season. He then latched on with the Houston Texans, where he appeared in two games and played just 29 snaps on defense before being inactive during the playoffs.
Tart is no doubt a difference-maker in the run game, but heās got some work to do if he wants to truly maximize his potential and eventually cash in on a lucrative, long-term deal.
