General Manager Candidates A-Plenty
from First & Tenn Hosted by Nashville Post
The Tennessee Titans wasted no time in their search for a new general manager. Less than a week after Ran Carthon was fired, 10 candidates were interviewed virtually and six of those were selected to come to Nashville for a second, in-person interview. The only two of the 10 who previously worked as NFL general managers did not make the cut. One of those who did was a candidate two years earlier when Carthon was hired, and another has a long history with Chad Brinker, the man in charge of the search. ... Former Titans coach Mike Vrabel is the new head coach of the New England Patriots, which means he will be back in Nashville during the 2025 season when the Titans and Patriots meet at Nissan Stadium (date TBD). That game figures to serve as a sort of referendum for many on the merits of the decision to fire Vrabel a year ago. ... Carthon made an appearance on a Nashville radio station this week but did not offer anything of note about his time with the Titans or his ouster, which came less than a year after he was promoted a received a ringing endorsement from the owner. ... Defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons created a bit of a social media uproar but did his best a day later to back away from it.
