The Tennessee Titans have question marks surrounding the quarterback position with the practically guaranteed departure of backup Marcus Mariota and the uncertainty surrounding whether or not Ryan Tannehill will return.
If Tannehill isn’t back in Nashville for the 2020 season, the team will look to free agency and the draft to find his replacement.
And if he is the Titans’ starter in the upcoming season, Tennessee will need to put someone it can be comfortable with behind him.
Former Washington Huskies quarterback Jacob Eason, who has been connected to the Titans in mock drafts, could come into play.
Here’s a complete breakdown of the signal-caller.
Pros
Eason is a solid choice for teams looking for a promising quarterback of the future in the first or second round, and certainly has the size at 6-foot-6 and 227 pounds.
The transfer from Georgia completed 64.2 percent of his passes for 3,132 yards with 23 touchdowns and low total of eight interceptions last year — so it’s clear he’s careful with the football and makes good decisions for the most part.
His arm strength is a huge plus, and he’s shown the ability to confidently place the ball where it needs to be even if his receiver isn’t wide-open right then.
