The Tennessee Titans made a significant move by firing general manager Ran Carthon after a disappointing two-season tenure that culminated in a 9-25 record. Carthon, who was appointed as the franchise's first Black general manager in January 2023, faced challenges in improving the team's performance and identifying talent. While he helped hire head coach Brian Callahan, the team still struggled, finishing with a franchise-worst 14 losses in a season.

Controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk expressed her disappointment and emphasized the necessity for a fresh direction, stating that the team's lack of improvement forced her hand. The Titans will now search for a new GM to guide the franchise as it approaches the NFL draft, armed with the fourth overall pick after a last-place finish. Strunk has appointed Chad Brinker, president of football operations, to lead this search.
