The Tennessee Titans have been as active as any team in the NFL this offseason, but they're not done yet.

Even after multiple signings in free agency and a draft haul worth getting excited about, Robert Saleh's squad still has a few glaring weaknesses. No team can complete a rebuild in one offseason, but there are still more moves out there for the making if the Titans want to set themselves up for success in 2026.

Signing veteran cornerback Kenny Moore II might be the most obvious of the bunch. Tennessee can scoop up the former Indianapolis Colts team captain at a low cost. If he's interested, this should be a no-brainer.

Titans are staring down a Kenny Moore signing that makes perfect sense

The Titans have attempted to completely remake their cornerback room this offseason. They signed Alontae Taylor and Cor'Dale Flott in free agency, and both players should immediately step into the starting lineup as outside cornerbacks.

Second-year pro Marcus Harris is currently set to be the team's starting nickel defender. He had an encouraging rookie season, winning the starting job down the stretch, but Tennessee could still stand to add a veteran to rotate with him.

Of the options available in free agency, Moore is the best fit. Aaron Schatz of ESPN argued for the Titans signing the veteran, saying, "Robert Saleh and Gus Bradley say that they are confident in second-year cornerback Marcus Harris handling the nickelback role. But why not bring in some veteran competition to push him during training camp? Moore was still above average in my coverage DVOA metric last season, and he has always been strong against the run."

Moore may be undersized at 5'9", but his instincts and experience could be what the Titans need to tie their secondary together. He's quick to trigger on outside runs and screen passes, often shutting them down behind the line of scrimmage. In 2025, he forced two fumbles and had 55 tackles despite missing time.

The former Colts team captain even played for Titans defensive coordinator Gus Bradley in Indianapolis, so he'll already be familiar with his system.

He doesn't need to displace Harris in the starting lineup. The Titans clearly see a strong future for the young defender, so there's no need to limit his growth. But Moore could bring some added veteran leadership to the cornerback room while joining the rotation.

With plenty of cap space still to spend, there's no reason for the Titans to pass up on signing the veteran defender.
