The Tennessee Titans are undergoing a significant rebuilding process following a dismal 3-14 record from last season. New general manager Mike Borgonzi is expected to make substantial changes, including possibly reversing some of the recent acquisitions made under former GM Ran Carthon. One potential move could involve cornerback Chidobe Awuzie, who signed a three-year deal with the Titans after joining from the Cincinnati Bengals. Analyst Alex Ballentine suggests that the Titans might consider trading him to the Indianapolis Colts, a divisional rival.
Awuzie's familiarity with Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo could make this move appealing, especially since he previously thrived in Anarumo's system. However, the Titans have a significant investment in L'Jarius Sneed, raising questions about Awuzie's future with the team. Last season, he struggled with injuries, only managing to play in eight games.
The Titans are assessing their options, especially with the upcoming draft, where they hold the No. 1 overall pick and are rumored to be interested in Travis Hunter, a versatile prospect. Should the Titans draft Hunter, it might signal a shift in their cornerback strategy, potentially leading to a trade for Awuzie.
