The Tennessee Titans immediately granted linebacker Kamalei Correa’s reported trade request by dealing him to the AFC South rival Jacksonville Jaguars, according to multiple outlets.

Early Wednesday, NFL Network reported that Correa had told the team he wanted out after being listed as inactive for Tuesday night’s game against the Buffalo Bills.

By Wednesday afternoon, the network said the 26-year-old Correa was headed to Jacksonville. No further details were provided regarding the transaction.

Correa was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Sept. 30 and came off the list Tuesday. He made two tackles in three games this season for the Titans (4-0), who posted a 42-16 win over the Bills.

A second-round pick by Baltimore in 2016, Correa was traded to Tennessee for a 2019 sixth-round selection before the start of the 2018 season. He likely expected more playing time when he signed a one-year contract in April with a base salary of $2.25 million. The contract could have been worth up to $3.5 million with incentives.

He set career highs with 37 tackles and five sacks in 16 games with the Titans in 2019.

Correa has 77 tackles, 8.5 sacks and two forced fumbles in 57 games (13 starts) with the Ravens (2016-17) and Titans.
