The Tennessee Titans are focusing on improving their pass rush for the upcoming 2026 NFL season. After selecting Carnell Tate at pick #4, the team traded T’Vondre Sweat for Jermaine Johnson and signed John Franklin-Myers. While they did not land a top EDGE rusher, these moves aim to enhance their defensive capabilities. Jeffery Simmons remains a key player, as opposing offenses must adjust their protection schemes to account for him.
