Titans fire offensive coordinator Downing

The Tennessee Titans announced the firings of four assistants on Monday, including offensive coordinator Todd Downing. Downing spent four years with the Titans, including the last two seasons as offensive coordinator. The Titans fell from fourth in the NFL in scoring in 2020 to 15th in Downing’s first year and 28th this season, with the Titans ending the year on a seven-game losing streak to miss the playoffs. While injuries were a major factor in Downing’s tenure, poor pass protection, lack of receiver production, and predictable play-calling also contributed to his downfall. The Titans logged the most three-and-outs and tied for the fewest first downs in football in 2022. Fantasy owners will hope for an improvement next season.
