Tennessee Titans drop to 28th in latest NFL power rankings

The Tennessee Titans fell one spot to No. 28 in the latest ESPN NFL power rankings following an uneven preseason. The team finalized its 53-man roster and is now preparing for the season opener against the New York Jets at Nissan Stadium. Head coach Robert Saleh opted for joint practices over traditional preseason game volume to evaluate the roster, a strategy that has left questions regarding the team's readiness for the regular season. The franchise currently sits at 499 total victories and aims to reach the 500-win milestone against the Jets, who finished last season with a 3-14 record. Tennessee has not won a season-opening game since 2020. Despite the ranking drop, the team is favored to win only two games this year, including the upcoming matchup against the Jets and a Week 7 contest against the Browns.
