Mentioned in this story
Earlier in the week, the Tennessee Titans announced some new additions and released what was thought to be their entire football staff, but just like the ever-changing landscape of the NFL, Tennessee wasnât finished adding to its organization.
In the initial release, many noticed that the Titans had parted ways with Director of Football Research and Development Sarah Bailey, and Seth Walder later verified the move on social media.
Bailey was initially brought in by Chad Brinker in 2023 to help boost the analytics department, but now will be searching for a new home. While no specific reason was given for the move, it is interesting that this occurred just days after Brinker stepped down.
