Chigoziem Okonkwo and the rest of the Tennessee Titans had their season come to an end on Sunday in Week 18 with a loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
For Chig, it might be the end of his time with the Titans.
Okonkwo will be a free agent this offseason, and after the loss, he took to social media to share a heartfelt message:
Thank you Tennessee for allowing me to live out my childhood dreams! Playing in the NFL representing the Titans for the past 4 years has been an unbelievable privilege that I will never take for granted! Thank you Lord for keeping me safe and allowing me to play every game these…

That sure reads a lot like a guy saying goodbye.
The Titans had a solid rookie TE this season, Gunnar Helm, and so Okonkwo and Tennessee both might see merit to him moving on.
Okonkwo was a fourth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Maryland.
He has had more than 50 catches in each of the last three seasons, totaled more than 2,000 yards across his four seasons and caught eight touchdowns.
He's an athletic 6-foot-3 target and still just 26 years old, so Okonkwo will likely be an exciting free agent addition for someone.
