The Tennessee Titans reportedly have their second known candidate for their special teams coordinator vacancy.
According to Titans beat writer Paul Kuharsky, the Titans interviewed former Carolina Panthers special teams coordinator and interim head coach, Chris Tabor, for their opening.
Tabor was hired by the Panthers in 2022 and had interim head coach added to his title after former Carolina head coach Frank Reich was fired during the 2023 campaign.
According to NFL analyst Rick Gosselin, the Panthers sported the fourth-best special teams unit in 2022 before falling to No. 23 last season.
Prior to his stint in Carolina, Tabor served as special teams coordinator for the Cleveland Browns (2011-17) and Chicago Bears (2018-21).
The Titans routinely had lackluster special teams units during the nearly six-season tenure of former special teams coordinator, Craig Aukerman, who was fired during the 2023 campaign.

The only other special teams coordinator interview for the Titans that has been reported was with former New York Giants special teams coordinator Thomas McGaughey, who has since been hired to the same role with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
