Prior to Free Agency, the Titans released a few notable players. Here, let’s take a look at how these guys could be replaced

According to Adam Schefter, the Cleveland Browns and Jack Conklin agreed to a 3-year, $42 million deal. Even though free agency hasn’t technically started yet, Conklin isn’t the first notable player who is no longer a Titan.

On March 12th, the Titans made the decision to release Cameron Wake and Dion Lewis. This wasn’t surprising, as both players had underperformed, and the Titans definitely can make better use of that cap space elsewhere.

However, the next day, March 13th, the Titans also released Delanie Walker and Ryan Succop. The Succop move was well-warranted, but the Delanie move caught some by surprise. Delanie has been a key cog of this Titans’ team, and has been arguably the best Tight End in Titans history.

But while Delanie was universally loved by fans, the NFL is a business, and he’s simply gotten too expensive and injured.

So, the Titans will be going into Free Agency having already lost five once-productive players from the team. You can probably assume Logan Ryan can be added to that list as well, as it seems he’ll at least be allowed to test the market.

Players that Titans fans have grown accustomed to seeing on the field on Sundays will be wearing other uniforms in 2020. With that being said, let’s take a look at what the Titans could possibly do to replace said players.
