The Tennessee Titans made a few key moves to help strengthen the roster before the NFL 2023 season.
In March, they agreed to a three-year, $29 million deal with offensive tackle Andre Dillard. A few players, including centre Corey Levin and wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, were re-signed to one-year deals. Through the 2023 NFL Draught, the Titans acquired five rookies, including Will Levis, a quarterback from Kentucky and offensive lineman from Northwestern.
As the NFL 2023 season gets underway, the Titans will have a lot to watch out for. Including some positional matchups and how the team’s new players will fit in with the roster. Willis and quarterback Malik Willis have the chance to replace Ryan Tannehill. Who has played for the Titans for four seasons, as the team’s back-up quarterback.
In March, Key agreed to a three-year, $21 million contract. Since being chosen with the 87th pick in the 2018 NFL Draught, Key, a former third-round choice out of LSU, has appeared in 71 games and started 13 of them for three different teams. His most recent season had a four-tackle, two quarterback hits. One fumble recovery performance against the Titans in Week 14. He most recently participated in 17 games and three starts for the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2022.
Dillard, who had high comments for the 27-year-old defensive end on Saturday, had already formed a favorable opinion of Key.
Dillard said, via Titans Wire and a Saturday tweet from TennesseeTitans.com Senior Writer Jim Wyatt.
“Arden, an amazing teammate. We go against each other pretty much every rep of the whole practice.
Iron sharpens iron; he’s an amazing pass-rusher, run defender, everything. So, he definitely has all the tools that a defensive player needs. I’m glad I get to go up against him and sharpen my own skills.”
Last year, he recorded 4.5 sacks, one of which came in Week 14’s matchup between the Jaguars and Titans.
The Titans’ defence might be much improved if Key can collaborate well with Simmons, defensive end Denico Autry, and nose tackle Teair Tart as they strive to make the NFL playoffs for the first time since 2021.
