The Titans brought in Anderson (suspension) for a tryout Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports. Anderson was suspended for the first six games of last season for a violation of the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances. However, the 255-pound linebacker was released by the Giants ahead of the 2021 regular season, and he did not play again until signing with the Steelers this past October. Anderson then recorded one tackle while playing 27 defensive snaps over five games with Pittsburgh, though he was eventually let go in early November.

Anderson (suspension) was released by the Giants on Tuesday, Michael Eisen of the Giants' official site reports.

Anderson was placed on the non-football injury list with a back injury Sunday. The severity of Anderson's injury isn't yet clear, but he'll be unavailable to begin camp. The 26-year-old dealt with a knee injury last year and played 145 defensive snaps in nine games with Washington. Once he's cleared to practice, he should compete for a depth role with his new team.

Anderson (knee) is signing a one-year contract with the Giants, Field Yates of ESPN reports. The deal includes a $137,500 signing bonus and qualifies for the veteran salary benefit, so Anderson should have the inside track for a spot on the Week 1 roster. A 2017 second-round pick, he started just four of his 52 regular-season games in Washington, recording 86 tackles, 15 QB hits and six sacks. Anderson flashed some potential in 2019 with five forced fumbles and four sacks, but between a knee injury and tougher competition for playing time, he played just 145 defensive snaps in nine games in 2020. He missed the final seven weeks of the season, but there hasn't been any report of him needing surgery.

Anderson (knee) was a full practice participant Friday, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports. The 26-year-old missed Week 12 due to the knee injury, but he's back on track this week. Anderson hasn't played more than 15 defensive snaps in a game since Week 4 for Washington.
