Summary

The Tennessee Titans confirmed their initial 53-man roster for the 2026 NFL season on August 30. General manager Mike Borgonzi oversaw the construction of a group featuring 22 former draft picks, though the current squad includes no undrafted free agents from the 2026 class. Notable roster moves included the release of quarterback Will Levis. The team's composition currently lists two quarterbacks, four cornerbacks, and 10 defensive linemen. This roster remains subject to adjustments before the season opener against the New York Jets on September 13, with potential activity expected during the waiver claim period on August 31.
