The Tennessee Titans have been the primary staff to half methods with their head coach.
Brian Callahan couldn’t make it previous Week 6, and his solely win of the season got here after an all-time nice blunder by the Arizona Cardinals.
Contemplating that, it could solely be truthful to imagine that the Titans could be open for enterprise.
They’ve a number of useful veterans who might gauge loads of curiosity within the commerce market, beginning with star DT Jeffery Simmons.
Sadly for the remainder of the league, he’s off the desk.
Based on NFL Community’s insider Ian Rapoport, the Titans don’t intend to half methods with their defensive superstars:
“Whereas there will probably be loads of fallout for Tennessee within the coming months, the speedy fallout throughout the NFL was this: Seemingly everybody known as the Titans to see if star defensive sort out Jeffery Simmons was out there forward of the league’s Nov. 4 commerce deadline. Sources defined that a number of groups known as to gauge the provision of Simmons, one of many prime gamers at his place within the league, within the hours and days after Titans proprietor Amy Adams Strunk made the choice to fireside Callahan. These have been informed clearly that Simmons shouldn’t be out there, sources say,” Rapoport wrote.
After all, this is sensible, contemplating that Simmons is, objectively, a top-five – and perhaps even top-three – participant in his place.
Nonetheless, it’s not just like the Titans are something even remotely near rivalry.
This staff hasn’t discovered a lot success within the NFL Draft, and Cam Ward is probably going going to want extra time.
First, they should discover the appropriate man to develop their younger star quarterback, however it is a staff sport, and so they want many extra items round him.
That’s to say that they’re simply risking holding onto Simmons via the backend of his prime and nonetheless not being ok to compete for a playoff berth.
Maybe it could be higher for them to capitalize on his steep commerce worth whereas they nonetheless can, however they clearly don’t appear to really feel the identical approach.
