ILB Jayon Brown
The Titans got an absolute steal in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft in inside linebacker Jayon Brown, who has emerged as one of the elite coverage linebackers in the league.
We saw just how important Brown was to the Titans last season when he was dealing with a groin injury, as the defense just wasn’t the same in coverage without him.
Brown has finished No. 2 and No. 3 in tackles the past two seasons, and his finishing with the third-most tackles in 2019 is made even more impressive when you consider he missed two games.
The Titans would be wise to try and ink Brown to a long-term extension prior to the 2020 season, otherwise they could find themselves in a bidding war to retain the 25-year-old in 2021.
