Pass rushers who found themselves in the backfield more often than Derrick Henry presented challenges for Tennessee Titans starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill, Malik Willis, a second-year player, and Will Levis, a strong-armed rookie.
All jokes aside, Tannehill (32), Levis (28), and Willis (4) were sacked 64 times in total, which tied them for the fourth-highest total in the league with the New York Jets.
According to Pro Football Focus, the Tennessee Titans’ offensive line has been ranked 32nd in each of the previous two seasons. The team placed dead last in the NFL in pass-blocking efficiency in both 2022 and 2023, while Tennessee was next-to-worst in the league in 2021.
Only the Washington Commanders and New England Patriots have more salary cap space than the Titans right now, according to Spotrac. In the 2024 NFL Draft, executive vice president and general manager Ran Carthon is slated to select seventh and 39th overall, however he does not have a third-round pick.
Here are four possible prospects that could become available for signing in mid-March, along with one player who is ready to go right now. It’s worth noting that multiple players are capable of playing both guard and tackle, which may be crucial for Brian Callahan in his quest for the ideal lineup.
5. Billy Turner, a Jets player
The ten-year veteran has played for four different teams throughout the league and has seen plenty of action, but he has never been selected to a Pro Bowl or received All-Pro status.Billy Turner made two starts in 14 appearances during the previous season with the Jets. In previous seasons, the adaptable player lined up both inside and outside for the Miami Dolphins, Denver Broncos, and Green Bay Packers. Turner has also played in the playoffs, having started five games for the Green Bay Packers between 2019 and 21.
