[Off-season] Tennessee Titans, at prospective time

The 2024 season has just ended, and on March 14, the 2025 campaign will open its doors. Touchdown news therefore takes the opportunity to offer you an overview of different franchises during the offseason.

Which players keep and cut? Which free agents extend? What recruits observe? Here are some ideas, franchise by franchise. Today, close -up on the Tennessee Titans. You will find the sheets of each team on this page.

But having the first choice of the Draft, as well as a wage bill conducive to recruitment, the Nashville franchise aspires to become a mediatized program again.

Tauliers of Tennessee Titans

1. Jeffery Simmons, Dt
2. Harold Landry, Edge
3. Calvin Ridley, Wr

Who is the boss? In 2019, the Titans drafted Jeffery Simmons in the 1st round of the Draft, while it was injured! Since then, the player has fully justified their confidence. The ESPN site class 10th in its position in duels won against protection, 8th against the race game during the 2024 season.

Whether among the Edge Rushers or the receivers, Harold Landry and Calvin Ridley are good. But neither can claim a top 10 in their respective positions. The titans workforce have some solid holders, such as the Safety Amani Hooker, the receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine or the runner Tony Pollard.

But they have too few players displaying a higher level!

The man of summer

Brian Callahan, coach

Recruited for the quality of his work with Joe Burrow in Cincinnati, Brian Callahan was to straighten the sporting situation of the Titans. After the failure of the 2024 season, he must now justify his presence with a new decision -maker as sports director.

For the moment, he benefits from doubt due to a deficit quarterback post. But the same leniency will not be in order, if the results do not improve in 2025. Will he drink the pressure or undergo it?

The main free agents of Tennessee Titans

1. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Wr
2. Sebastian Joseph-Day, Dt

The others: Luke Gifford, Jack Gibbens and Jerome Baker (LB), Mason Rudolph (QB), Tyler Boyd (WR), Daryl Worley (CB), Dillon Radunz (OG), Quandre Diggs (s)

After an learning rookie season in 2020, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine played as a number 3 recipient the following three seasons: an average of 400 yards and 4 touchdowns per year.

In 2024, he hoisted his level of play by signing nine touchdowns! Arriving at the end of the contract, the one who played at university with Michael Penix (Atlanta) deserves to sign a much more important contract than that for two million signed in 2024.

Do not doubt it, it will be coveted. Fortunately, the Titans have a substantial salary margin for the 2025 season. It would be very surprising that they let him sign elsewhere. Ditto for the defensive line player Sebastian Joseph-Day, who without being a reference to his post, displays the level of a holder at the NFL level.

Generous but limited prototypes of the LineBacker, the titans must remember at least one of the two, between Luke Gifford and Jack Gibbens. Apart from the first two players mentioned, none of the 28 other players at the end of the contract draws an alarm signal on their potential absence in 2025.

The spam

Will Levis, QB

Mayonnaise in the cafe! His culinary habit sums up his performances quite well since his draft: power with his arm, sweetness with his personality but a mixture with a disgusting taste.

For his second season in NFL, he played 12 games and launched 12 interceptions! For the last 2024 games, his trainer even prefers to align the very average Mason Rudolph. With more deductibles in need of a quarterback than interesting profiles available, an NFL team could covet it for a role of “number 2 with potential”.

Still under contract with Tennessee, the titans could save the $ 5.5 million remaining on his contract. A 4th round draft choice should be enough to acquire it.

The top 5 needs of Tennessee Titans

1. Quarterback
2. Right tackle
3. GUARD Right
4. Edge
5.

Since the late Steve McNair, the fans of the titans have not found a quarterback exciting their hopes! There should be a change in this position in 2025: will it pay?

It cannot be said that the Titans will not have tried to improve the offensive line. Tackle left, JC Latham was the choice number 7 of the Draft 2024, Peter Skoronski (Guard Left) The 11th general choice in 2023. If the two young players are still perfectible, they already show a level of holders correct, while waiting for their progressions . The right side is a real field of ruins!

Titans are not devoid of talent, neither to the post of recipient nor to that of rusher pass outside. However, Calvin Ridley and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine in attack and Harold Landry and Arden Key (9 and 6 Sacks in 2024) should not deprive Tennessee to strengthen these two so impactful positions.

The target

Jedrick Wills, OT, Cleveland Browns

Chosen in the top 10 in 2020, Jedrick Wills disappointed Cleveland fans. Tackle right at the University of Alabama, he never confirmed his talent on the left Tackle post. Putting the player on this side could help their expected development.

In charge of the Titans offensive line for a year, Bill Callahan (father of the coach) spent the previous four years leading that of the Browns. If he could see the limits of Jedrick Wills, it has also been found that his intrinsic qualities are greater than the five players who occupied the position of Tackle right in Nashville in 2024.

Titans could also target a quarterback. Players like Mac Jones, Justin Fields or Jameis Winston would be potentially targeted. In order to accompany, or even to replace at the start of the season, the quarterback of the future.

New blood

Sheder Sanders, Qb, Colorado

Mike Borgonzi is the new manager of the Titans. During his enthronement, he claimed not to want to pass on a generational talent during the draft. This declaration does not play in favor of a quarterback with certain qualities, but which is anything but a “generational prospect”.

But what decision maker NFL declares his real intentions publicly? Tennessee needs a quarterback and Tennessee will select a quarterback.

If some experts lean towards Cam Ward from the University of Miami, Shedeur Sanders is the most reliable quarterback of this cuvée. It is visible that he has received the advice and criticisms of his Hall of Famer of father.

Precision, placement of the ball and game intelligence are its strengths. If he still has axes of progression, he has the potential to become an NFL holder. And more if affinities …
