Brian Callahan mentions 3 positions Titans want to add to

Titans head coach Brian Callahan mentioned three positions the team would like to add to moving forward.

Despite what has been a busy and exciting offseason thus far, the Tennessee Titans still have work to do at some positions, something head coach Brian Callahan talked about on Wednesday.

During his first press conference of the offseason program, which began on Monday, Callahan said the team is open to adding at three specific position groups: defensive line, tight end and wide receiver.

Callahan spoke specifically about wanting someone to emerge in the slot, mentioning guys like Kyle Philips, Mason Kinsey and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine. He did not, however, mention Treylon Burks.

At defensive line, the Titans have two experienced starters in Jeffery Simmons and Sebastian Joseph-Day, who was signed this offseason. However, not only are they lacking another starter, they also have questionable depth options.

Callahan says the Titans are still in the “building phase.”

As far as tight ends go, Tennessee has Chig Okonkwo and Josh Whyle at the top of the depth chart but the latter remains unproven and there isn’t much behind those two.

Callahan said the team is excited about both of those players but added there is need for more at the position, especially considering the Titans only have three total on the roster, with Thomas Odukoya being the third.

While he didn’t mention it in his presser, the Titans also need help at both tackle spots, with the left side obviously being more dire. Safety, linebacker and EDGE are positions Tennessee must address, also.
