The Tennessee Titans lack the high-end weapons on offense they boasted a season ago with A.J. Brown on the field. They drafted Treylon Burks to try and replace Brown, but Burks has reportedly struggled so far in camp. Fortunately for Tennessee, they don’t rely on receivers winning 1-on-1 to move the ball in the passing attack as much as other teams.
Tennessee Titans 53-man roster projection
The Titans haven’t had a losing season in Mike Vrabel’s four years with the team. In fact, they’ve improved their record in each of the past three seasons. In 2022, they did it without Derrick Henry for most of the year while struggling offensively, finishing 15th in EPA per play for the season while battling through a mass of injuries.
Starters will be annotated with an asterisk.

Ryan Tannehill’s strength, and the strength of the Titans’ offense, is through their play-action passing attack. They pull linebackers forward and attack the space between them and the safeties through a mix of concepts.
They’ll need their offensive line to be strong, but there is a massive question surrounding the right tackle spot, and Taylor Lewan hasn’t quite been the same since returning from his ACL tear in 2020.
