Titans GM Jon Robinson hasn’t spoken to Isaiah Wilson since December
To say 2020 first-round pick and offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson had a rough rookie season with the Tennessee Titans would be an understatement, and it doesn’t appear things are getting any better, at least from a communication standpoint.
Wilson did just about everything wrong, from multiple run-ins with the law, to multiple trips to the COVID-19 list, to a suspension, and then an early end to his season after being placed on the Reserve/Non-Football Illness list.
Since being placed on the aforementioned list in December, there apparently hasn’t been any communication between Wilson and general manager Jon Robinson, as he revealed during a Tuesday press conference.

Robinson on Isaiah Wilson: We put him on the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list, and haven't spoken to him since. He's going to have to make a determination on whether he wants to do what it takes to play pro football. That will be on him.@Titans

Robinson did say, however, that the team has had “some people” who have been in contact with Wilson, although he didn’t say specifically who that was.

Robinson also admitted that Wilson was not the same player the team evaluated during the draft process when he showed up in Nashville.
Jon Robinson on Isaiah Wilson: We did a lot of work on him, leading up to the evaluation process. The player that was here in the fall in Nashville was not the player we evaluated. He's going to have to make a determination if he wants to play pro football. That's on him.

Wilson still has three more years left on his rookie deal, but at this point it would be shocking if he contributed anything at all in that time.
Right now, Robinson looks like he made a colossal mistake in drafting the Georgia product and the selection will prove to be a major blemish on his record, as was the entire 2020 offseason.
