Tennessee Titans Begin Rebuild With Cam Ward, Defensive Additions for 2025

The Tennessee Titans are entering the 2025 season in a rebuilding phase following a disappointing 2024 campaign that saw them finish with a three-win season and earn the No. 1 draft pick, which they used to select quarterback Cam Ward. The organization is focusing on a "Draft, Develop, Retain" strategy to build a core roster, emphasizing player development and retention of key performers. To address offensive struggles, particularly in wide receiver speed and separation, the Titans revamped their receiver room with several speed-focused players, hoping to improve downfield passing. On the offensive line, the team invested heavily in free agent Dan Moore, an upgrade expected to reduce sacks and pressures, a key problem in 2024 that particularly affected quarterback Will Levis. Ward's ability to avoid sacks more effectively than Levis is seen as crucial to improving the Titans' offensive production and overall success. Defensively, the team bolstered its edge-rusher group with additions like Dre'Mont Jones and is considering veteran Matt Judon to strengthen the pass rush, although Judon is viewed as a rotational player past his prime.
