In our latest offseason preview for the Tennessee Titans, we’re taking a look at the team’s situation at both cornerback and safety with free agency rapidly approaching
The defensive backs group wasn’t immune to the plethora of injuries the Titans suffered in 2022, with starters like Kristian Fulton (six games) and Amani Hooker (eight games) both missing time due to injury.
The Titans didn’t get anything out of Elijah Molden and Caleb Farley as a result of injury, also. Farley in particular wasn’t good in his limited opportunities, either.
Roger McCreary found himself in a significant role in Year 1 after beating out Farley for the starting job, and while he no doubt flashed, the rookie saw his fair share of struggles, also.
The rock, of course, was safety Kevin Byard, who played at a high level despite players dropping like flies around him.
The result of all that was the Titans finishing with the worst pass defense in the NFL in 2022. The good news is, there is nowhere to go but up for Tennessee’s group of defensive backs.
Now, a look at who’s under contract, who’s a pending free agent, and what the Titans might do at both positions this offseason.
