He is expected to appear in court for a hearing May 19. An undrafted free agent, the 25-year-old has spent the last three years with the Titans before tumbling down the depth chart in 2016. He finished the year with just 15 yards on two carries. He was not retained by the team in the offseason.

Titans' Antonio Andrews: Won't be tendered by Tennessee
Antonio Andrews won't receive a restricted free agency tender from the Tennessee Titans, Jason Wolf of the Tennessean reports.Andrews had 143 rushing attempts for 520 yards and three touchdowns in 2015, but the additions of DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry last offseason relegated him to just two carries and 15 yards in 2016. By not extending Andrews a restricted free agent tende, the Titans are enbabling him to test the open market when free agency officially opens Thursday afternoon. He'll likely look for a team that offers him more playing time in 2017.

Titans' Antonio Andrews: Wins third running back job
Antonio Andrews has emerged as Tennessee's third-string running back following Friday's final roster cuts.The Tennessee Titans opted to keep just three running backs, which is one fewer than expected. Nonetheless, the team's 2015 leading rusher was able to secure a spot on the final roster unlike Bishop Sankey, Dexter McCluster or David Cobb. He's unlikely to see the field on offense unless DeMarco Murray or Derrick Henry get hurt, but could mix in on special teams as a kick returner.

Titans' Antonio Andrews: Fails to take advantage of special teams opportunity
Antonio Andrews rushed four times for nine yards, and added 33 yards on three kick returns in Saturday's preseason game against the Raiders.Strong special teams play was supposed to distinguish Andrews from Tennessee's other depth running backs, but he didn't help his case much in this one. His 10 offensive snaps did exceed Dexter McCluster (six), David Cobb (two), and Bishop Sankey (zero) combined, so it looks like the team's leading 2015 rusher still holds a slight edge in the battle to back up DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry heading into the preseason finale.

Titans' Antonio Andrews: Upstaged in preseason opener
Antonio Andrews rushed eight times for 41 yards, but went without a target in Saturday's preseason opener against the Chargers.Andrews didn't play poorly, but still lost ground as three other prominent Tennessee Titans running backs all averaged more yards per carry and found the end zone. While the 24-year-old wasn't considered a serious threat to surpass DeMarco Murray or Derrick Henry anyway, he can't afford to get beat out by 2014 fifth-rounder Bishop Sankey for the third spot behind them. Sankey has started strong after ceding the job to Andrews last year, leaving Tennessee's leading 2015 rusher in serious jeopardy of getting cut entirely.

Titans' Antonio Andrews: Back on field Tuesday
Antonio Andrews, who had been dealing with a strained hamstring, took some reps Tuesday, Tennessee Titans beat writer John Glennon reports.Andrews wasn't out long, but glowing reports about Bishop Sankey early in camp suggest that last year's leading rusher is in an early hole in the battle for the team's No. 3 running back spot behind newcomers DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry. The plodding back isn't a game-changer, but he still does his stock much more good by being out there than watching injured from the sidelines.

Titans' Antonio Andrews: Playing time could be limited by new acquisition
Antonio Andrews faces added backfield competition after the Tennessee Titans completed a deal to acquire DeMarco Murray from the Eagles on Wednesday, the team's official site reports.Less than a week after signing Andrews to a one-year extension, the Titans made a move that promises to significantly limit his playing time. Andrews rushed for 520 yards and three touchdowns while splitting time with Bishop Sankey, Dexter McCluster and David Cobb last season, but he doesn't figure to approach those totals as long as Murray -- who is slated to head the Titans' backfield in 2016 -- stays healthy.
