<p>The Miami Dolphins reportedly released offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson on Saturday — three days after acquiring the troubled former first-round pick in a trade with Tennessee.</p>



<p>Wilson showed up hours late for his Dolphins physical and orientation, and skipped two optional workouts he had committed to attending, according to the Miami Herald. </p>



<p>The 22-year-old Brooklyn native refused Miami’s efforts to get his life back on track, the report said.</p>



<p>WIlson appeared in just one game with the Titans last season in what was a tumultuous rookie year for the 29th pick in the 2020 draft.</p>



<p>In the middle of training camp in August, <strong>Wilson received a trespass warning</strong> after attempting to evade Tennessee State campus police following an off-campus party that had been broken up.</p>



<p>One month later he was charged with DUI after being spotted doing donuts in a Nashville intersection before crashing into a concrete wall.</p>

<p>The former Georgia star was suspended by the Titans for violating team rules in December. He then was placed on the reserve/non-football injury list and went months without speaking with the organization.</p>



<p>“He’s going to have to make a determination on whether he wants to do what it takes to play pro football,” <strong>Titans GM Jon Robinson said in February.</strong></p>



<p>Days later, Wilson said on social media that <strong>he was done playing football for the Titans,</strong> but then deleted the post minutes later.</p>



<p><strong>The Titans agreed to trade Wilson</strong> and a seventh-round pick to the Dolphins for a seventh-round pick in a deal that became official when the new league year began March 17.</p>

<p>On Friday, social media videos showed Wilson dancing shirtless on top of a car in an undisclosed location.</p>



<p>Wilson, who did not appear to have character concerns coming out of college, had signed a four-year, $11 million rookie contract with the Titans, but the team later voided all of his salary guarantees due to his off-field issues, according to the Miami Herald.</p>



<p>In addition to his transgressions, Wilson was twice placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list  &#8212; which was designated for players who tested positive for the virus or was found to have been exposed to the illness.</p>
