Pass-rusher Vic Beasley Jr. did not attend COVID-19 testing for a second straight day on Wednesday and has yet to communicate with the Tennessee Titans regarding his absence, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

The Titans placed Beasley on the reserve/did not report list Tuesday after their free-agent addition didn't show up for testing. He'll be fined $100,000 if he wasn't already excused, per team insider Paul Kuharsky.

The 28-year-old signed a one-year contract with Tennessee after spending his first five campaigns with the Atlanta Falcons.

The Falcons selected Beasley eighth overall in 2015. He led the league with 15.5 sacks and six forced fumbles in his second season, but he's accumulated just 28 quarterback takedowns since.

Beasley was expected to play a significant role on Mike Vrabel's defense, rotating with Reggie Gilbert and Kamalei Correa at outside linebacker opposite Harold Landry.
