Schlottmann signed a one-year contract with the Titans on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schlottman served as the Giants' backup center for most of the 2025 regular season, though he did start in four games (including Weeks 17 and 18) in place of John Michael Schmitz (finger). It appears as though Schlottman will have the opportunity to compete for the starting center job in Tennessee, given that the Titans released Lloyd Cushenberry (undisclosed) with a failed physical designation in late February and that Corey Levin (biceps) is still an unrestricted free agent.

Schlottmann is expected to start at center Sunday against the Broncos, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
John Michael Schmitz (concussion) has been ruled out and won't travel with the team to Denver. That leaves Schlottmann next in line at center. He played 32 snaps after Schmitz departed in Week 6, so Schlottmann should have some chemistry with Jaxson Dart.

EDGE Analysis

The Giants placed Schlottmann (leg) on the reserve/injured list Thursday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schlottmann suffered a broken fibula when he got rolled up during practice Wednesday, and while he won't need surgery, he's expected to be out for 8-to-10 weeks, per Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Schlottmann fractured his fibula in Week 17 of the 2022 season, but he was healthy for training camp and appeared in nine regular-season games (including three starts) for the Vikings in 2023. The timeline for his recovery would slate his return for late October or early November.

Schlottmann (lower leg) will begin rehabbing in early March and is expected to be fully healthy for the 2023 season, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schlottmann underwent successful surgery in early January to repair a fractured fibula, and he's since shed his walking boot. Assuming he indeed is ready for the start of the season, he should compete for a depth role on the Vikings offensive line, if not a starting position.

Schlottmann, who was placed on IR on Tuesday, will require surgery to repair a fractured fibula suffered in Sunday's loss to the Packers, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Schlottmann's move to IR essentially ended his season, although he'd technically be eligible to be activated if the Vikings were to make it to the Super Bowl. However, the 27-year-old will likely focus on recovering over the next several weeks and preparing to return healthy next season. With Garrett Bradbury (back) also ailing, the Vikings are down their top options at center and have turned to veteran Greg Mancz, who was signed Tuesday, to likely take over the position.
