What should Tennessee Titans seek in an Adoree Jackson trade?

How did we get here?

A byproduct of the Jalen Ramsey trade speculation, was everyone taking a closer look at the cornerback position to see who would be the odd man out. With Logan Ryan playing extremely well and with Malcolm Butler looking improved as well, the odd man out was Adoree Jackson.

It made sense because Adoree is the nickel cornerback this year, coming in to push Logan Ryan into the slot. Last year that job belonged to Malcolm Butler who seems to have elevated himself past Adoree Jackson in the eyes of the coaching staff.

Since it was all hypothetical no one paid that much attention to it, until Thursday night. That night Adoree Jackson had what was the most costly single play of the game, essentially handing the Titans first offensive possession to the Jacksonville Jaguars by fumbling a punt inside the redzone.

That led to seven points and a lead that the Titans chased (sort of) all night long.

This is coming right off of the heels of Adoree Jackson handing the Indianapolis Colts their first touchdown of the game at home in Week 2 when he tackled a WR while the ball was in the air and gave Indy the ball inside the redzone.

With fan opinion at an all time low with Adoree, it seems like the Titans are sitting on a player who showed he had a lot of value last year, but who just is in a slump this year.

This shouldn’t deter other teams around the NFL, but with the entire season under such a microscope, the Titans don’t really have time to find ways to get him on the field and help him work his way out of a slump like another team would.
