Cornerback Chris Harris Jr.

As unfortunate as it is, there is a very real chance that Logan Ryan may have played his last game in two-tone blue. Ryan had a fantastic year where he filled up the stat sheet in nearly every single category. Production like that is undoubtedly going to earn Ryan a payday from somewhere.

Unfortunately for Ryan, the deal-breaker may be the fact that the Titans already have a lot of money invested in the defensive backfield (Byard, Butler, Adoree’ Jackson’s fifth-year option in all likelihood) which increases the chance that he is playing somewhere other than Tennessee in 2020.

If Ryan decides to move on, one option they could look at is Chris Harris from the Denver Broncos. Harris has historically been one of the best slot corners in the NFL and would seemingly be able to take over Ryan’s duties.

The only conflict with Harris may be his price tag. If his number is anything close to Ryan’s then the team is probably better off just extending Ryan.

Harris will be 31 by the time the new season begins and is coming off one of his more pedestrian years from a statistical standpoint, which may ultimately lower his desired salary to something reasonable.

If so, the Titans should pounce on the opportunity in order to prevent the risk of a major drop off should Ryan depart for another team. A deal for Ryan, Harris, or any big name free agent for that matter likely depends on how expensive the extensions for Tannehill, Henry, and Conklin end up being.

However, if Harris wants to join a team that allows him to compete for a championship during the latter part of his career, then Tennessee might be the best place for him.
