With Delanie Walker expected to miss the rest of the season with a broken ankle, the Titans were already going to be without their leading receiver from last year this Sunday against the Eagles.
Now they'll be without their top two pass-catchers from a year ago.
Unhappy with playing time, veteran WR Rishard Matthews asked for a release and reached an agreement with Tennessee to part ways.
"I've been the leading receiver for two years. Then all of a sudden I'm barely playing and not even starting," Matthews told A to Z Sports in Nashville. "Using my injury as the scapegoat. Look at number of snaps and targets."
Through three games, Matthews had just three catches for 11 yards.

The 28-year-old Matthews last season caught 87 passes for 795 yards and led the Titans with four TDs. The year before, he caught 65 passes for 945 yards with nine touchdowns.
With Matthews gone, the Titans' depth chart at receiver includes Corey Davis, Tajae Sharpe, Taywan Taylor, Darius Jennings and Nick Williams.
Davis leads the group with 13 receptions for 151 yards. No other wide receiver on the roster has more than 62 yards receiving.
