NASHVILLE – The Titans have officially agreed to terms with former Eagles tackle Andre Dillard.

Dillard, selected with the 22nd overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, joins an offensive line in Tennessee that's currently under construction.

Dillard (6-5, 315) has played in 43 games over four seasons with the Eagles, with nine starts. Dillard started four games in 2019 and five games in 2021, but he was sidelined for all of the 2020 season because of a biceps tear.

In college, Dillard appeared in 42 career games at Washington State, including starts at left tackle in each of his last 39 contests. He was a two-time All-Pac-12 honoree who started all 13 games as a senior in 2018, when he allowed just one sack and 13 pressures in 722 pass-blocking snaps while receiving All-America honors as well as first-team All-Pac-12 recognition.

The Titans recently released left tackle Taylor Lewan and center Ben Jones, and guard Nate Davis reached a deal with the Chicago Bears.
