The Tennessee Titans are evaluating their new secondary as they prepare for the 2026 season. Following a disappointing 2025, where the team recorded only six interceptions, substantial changes were made in the defensive backfield. Amani Hooker, who had zero interceptions last season after five in 2024, is considered the top candidate for leading interceptions this year. The Titans have revamped their roster with the addition of new cornerbacks Alontae Taylor and Cor’Dale Flott, and Kevin Winston Jr. has been promoted to starter. An aggressive defensive strategy is expected under new head coach Robert Saleh, potentially enhancing takeaways and quarterback pressure.
