The Tennessee Titans hit rock bottom last season in coach Brian Callahan’s first year as head coach, finishing with an NFL-worst 3-14 record. They’ve taken several steps to bounce back ever since.
Some of those moves include getting a new franchise quarterback in Cam Ward, reinforcing the offensive line, and overhauling the receiving corps. But have they done enough to improve a defense that ranked 30th in points allowed a year ago?
Recently, Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton suggested a move that could help the Titans’ moderately upgraded defense take a leap forward. The idea? Sign four-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Matthew Judon.
Judon’s best days may indeed be behind him, yet there’s always the chance of him having a bounceback season in a new atmosphere that could use some more pass-rushing juice. After having the third-fewest sacks in the NFL in 2024, the Titans shouldn’t hesitate to consider more upgrades to their front seven, and Judon won’t break the bank in Tennessee.
Judon recorded just 5.5 sacks last season with the Atlanta Falcons, but he managed to rack up 15.5 sacks with the New England Patriots in 2022. That type of potential is hard to overlook for a Titans team that can afford to take low-risk chances on a rewarding buy.
